Bar to Megapascals Converter
How to convert bar to megapascals
megapascals = bar ÷ 10
To convert bar to megapascals, divide the number of bar by 10.
1 bar = 0.1 MPa
Examples
- A typical car tire pressure: 2.2 bar ÷ 10 = 0.22 MPa
- 1 bar ÷ 10 = 0.1 MPa

Unit definitions
- Bar
- A bar is exactly 100,000 pascals, slightly less than average atmospheric pressure at sea level. It is widely used in Europe for tire pressures, weather and industrial equipment.
- Megapascal (MPa)
- A megapascal is 1,000,000 pascals, or 10 bar. It is used for hydraulic pressures and for the strength of materials such as steel and concrete.
