Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is the kilopascal (kPa). Kilopascal is 1000 pascal units.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is the psi (psi). Pounds per square inch.
How do I convert kilopascal to psi?
Multiply the kilopascal value by 0.145038. For example, 10 kPa × 0.145038 = 1.450377 psi.
Is the kilopascal to psi conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined as fixed multiples of the pascal, the SI-derived unit of pressure, so the conversion factor follows directly from those exact definitions rather than a measured approximation.
Where is this conversion commonly used?
It's used whenever a value expressed in kilopascal needs to be compared with, or reported in, psi, such as in engineering specifications, weather readings, tire pressure, or industrial and scientific work.
Can I convert psi back to kilopascal?
Yes. Multiply the psi value by 6.894757 to get kilopascal.

About this conversion
This page converts kilopascal (kPa) to psi (psi) within the pressure converter.
Kilopascal is 1000 pascal units. Pounds per square inch.
The formula is psi = kilopascal × 0.145038, based on each unit's fixed relationship to the pascal, the pressure converter's base unit.
The conversion is exact, since both units are tied to the pascal by a fixed numerical ratio rather than a measured or approximate value.
