About Converting Torrs to Centipascals
Torr and Centipascal both measure a quantity used in structural or mechanical engineering — commonly stress, pressure, force, torque, power, or energy — where converting between the unit conventions used in different regions, industries, or equipment specifications is a routine part of design work. Specifically: A torr is 1/760 standard atmosphere, and centipascal is 0.01 pascal units.
Formula
centipascals = torrs × 13332.2368421
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 torr equals 133.322368421 base units, and 1 centipascal equals 0.01 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct torr-to-centipascal factor of 13332.2368421.
Simple example
1 Torr × 13332.23684 = 13,332.23684 cPa
1 torr = 13,332.23684 centipascals.
Real-world example
100 Torr × 13332.23684 = 1,333,223.684 cPa
100 torrs = 1,333,223.684 centipascals.

Frequently asked questions
How many centipascals are in 1 torr?
1 torr equals 13,332.23684 centipascals, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert torr to centipascal?
Multiply the torr value by 13332.23684. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert centipascal back to torr?
Use the reverse factor: 1 centipascal equals 0.0000750062 torrs. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a torr?
Torr (Torr) is a unit of engineering.
What is a centipascal?
Centipascal (cPa) is a unit of engineering.
Is the torr to centipascal conversion exact?
Yes. Both torr and centipascal are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 13332.23684 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Why do engineering unit conventions vary so much by region and industry?
Pressure, force, and stress can be expressed in metric (pascal, newton), US customary (psi, pound-force), or older and industry-specific units (atmosphere, torr, kip) depending on the country, industry, and even the equipment manufacturer, which is why engineers routinely need to convert between them when working across specs from different sources.
