To convert a measurement in hectopascals to a measurement in pounds per square inch, multiply the pressure by the following conversion ratio: 0.014504 pounds per square inch/hectopascal.

Since one hectopascal is equal to 0.014504 pounds per square inch, you can use this simple formula to convert:

pounds per square inch = hectopascals × 0.014504

The pressure in pounds per square inch is equal to the pressure in hectopascals multiplied by 0.014504.

For example, here's how to convert 5 hectopascals to pounds per square inch using the formula above.
pounds per square inch = (5 hPa × 0.014504) = 0.072519 psi

Hectopascals and pounds per square inch are both units used to measure pressure. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Hectopascal?

The hectopascal is equal to 100 pascals, which are defined as the pressure of one newton per square meter. The hectopascal is the internationally adopted unit used to measure atmospheric pressure.

The hectopascal is a multiple of the pascal, which is the SI derived unit for pressure. In the metric system, "hecto" is the prefix for 102. Hectopascals can be abbreviated as hPa; for example, 1 hectopascal can be written as 1 hPa.

What Are Pounds per Square Inch?

One pound per square inch is the pressure of equal to one pound-force per square inch.

The pound per square inch is a US customary and imperial unit of pressure. A pound per square inch is sometimes also referred to as a pound-force per square inch. Pounds per square inch can be abbreviated as psi; for example, 1 pound per square inch can be written as 1 psi.

PSI can be expressed using the formula:
1 psi = 1 lbfin2

Pressure in pounds per square inch are equal to the pound-force divided by the area in square inches.
