Kilopascals to Atmospheres Converter
How to convert kilopascals to atmospheres
atmospheres = kilopascals ÷ 101.325
To convert kilopascals to atmospheres, divide the number of kilopascals by 101.325.
1 kPa = 0.00986923267 atm
Examples
- Standard sea-level atmospheric pressure: 101.325 kPa ÷ 101.325 = 1 atm
- 220 kPa ÷ 101.325 = 2.17123119 atm
Good to know
This is the standard atmosphere (atm), exactly 101,325 Pa. It is not the technical atmosphere (at), which is 1 kgf/cm² or 98,066.5 Pa.

Unit definitions
- Kilopascal (kPa)
- A kilopascal is 1000 pascals. It is the common SI unit for tire pressures, weather reports and engineering in metric countries.
- Atmosphere (atm)
- The standard atmosphere is defined as exactly 101,325 pascals, approximately the average air pressure at sea level. It is used as a reference pressure in chemistry and physics.
