How to Convert Kilograms per Square Centimeter to Pascals

To convert a measurement in kilograms per square centimeter to a measurement in pascals, multiply the pressure by the following conversion ratio: 98,066.5 pascals/kilogram per square centimeter.

Since one kilogram per square centimeter is equal to 98,066.5 pascals, you can use this simple formula to convert:

pascals = kilograms per square centimeter × 98,066.5

The pressure in pascals is equal to the pressure in kilograms per square centimeter multiplied by 98,066.5.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilograms per square centimeter to pascals using the formula above.
pascals = (5 kgf/cm² × 98,066.5) = 490,332.5 Pa

Kilograms per square centimeter and pascals are both units used to measure pressure. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Are Kilograms per Square Centimeter?

One kilogram per square centimeter is the pressure of equal to one kilogram-force per square centimeter.

The kilogram per square centimeter is a non-SI metric unit for pressure. A kilogram per square centimeter is sometimes also referred to as a kilogram per square centimetre or kilogram-force per centimeter square. Kilograms per square centimeter can be abbreviated as kgf/cm²; for example, 1 kilogram per square centimeter can be written as 1 kgf/cm².

In the expressions of units, the slash, or solidus (/), is used to express a change in one or more units relative to a change in one or more other units.[1] For example, kgf/cm² is expressing a change in weight relative to a change in area.

The unit is deprecated and not permitted for use with SI units, although it is still in use as some precision measuring devices still use the unit.

Kilograms per square centimeter can be expressed using the formula:
1 kgf/cm2 = 1 kgf / cm2

Pressure in kilograms per square centimeter are equal to the kilogram-force divided by the area in square centimeters.

What Is a Pascal?

The pascal is defined as the pressure of one newton per square meter.

The pascal is the SI derived unit for pressure in the metric system. Pascals can be abbreviated as Pa; for example, 1 pascal can be written as 1 Pa.

Pascals can be expressed using the formula:
1 Pa = 1 N / m2

Pressure in pascals is equal to the force in newtons divided by the area in square meters.
