Kilopascals to Megapascals Converter
How to convert kilopascals to megapascals
megapascals = kilopascals ÷ 1,000
To convert kilopascals to megapascals, divide the number of kilopascals by 1,000.
1 kPa = 0.001 MPa
Examples
- Standard sea-level atmospheric pressure: 101.325 kPa ÷ 1,000 = 0.101325 MPa
- 220 kPa ÷ 1,000 = 0.22 MPa

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.
- 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.
