About Converting Centipascals to Millipascals
Centipascal and Millipascal both show up on pressure gauges — psi is standard on US tire and tool specifications, while bar is the everyday pressure unit across most of the rest of the world. Specifically: Centipascal is 0.01 pascal units, and millipascal is 0.001 pascal units.
Formula
millipascals = centipascals × 10
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centipascal equals 0.01 base units, and 1 millipascal equals 0.001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centipascal-to-millipascal factor of 10.
Simple example
1 cPa × 10 = 10 mPa
1 centipascal = 10 millipascals.
Real-world example
35 cPa × 10 = 350 mPa
35 centipascals = 350 millipascals.

Reverse conversion: Millipascal to Centipascal
10 mPa × 0.1 = 1 cPa
10 millipascals = 1 centipascal.
centipascals = millipascals × 0.1

Frequently asked questions
How many millipascals are in 1 centipascal?
1 centipascal equals 10 millipascals, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centipascal to millipascal?
Multiply the centipascal value by 10. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert millipascal back to centipascal?
Use the reverse factor: 1 millipascal equals 0.1 centipascals. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centipascal?
Centipascal (cPa) is a unit of pressure.
What is a millipascal?
Millipascal (mPa) is a unit of pressure.
Is the centipascal to millipascal conversion exact?
Yes. Both centipascal and millipascal are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 10 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
