🩺 kPa → mmHg
Translate kilopascal pressures into mmHg.
Medical professionals and lab technicians use this conversion to align device readouts with traditional blood pressure units.
16 kPa equals
120.00985 mmHg
psi: 2.3206
atm: 0.157908
How to Use This Calculator
Enter kPa
Provide the pressure in kilopascals from your gauge or dataset.
Review mmHg
The converter multiplies by 7.50062 to display millimeters of mercury.

psi and atm help cross-reference with other instrumentation.
Formula
mmHg ≈ kPa × 7.50062
psi ≈ kPa × 0.145038
atm ≈ kPa ÷ 101.325

Full Description
Millimeters of mercury remain the standard in medical settings and vacuum measurements. Converting from kilopascals keeps digital sensors and traditional instruments in sync.
Additional outputs offer context when comparing to US customary or atmospheric benchmarks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is mmHg the same as Torr?
They are nearly identical for practical purposes (1 Torr ≈ 1 mmHg).
Can I convert mmHg back to kPa?
Divide mmHg by 7.50062, or use the kPa converter for broader options.
Does it handle negative pressures?
Yes. Negative kPa values convert to negative mmHg, representing vacuum relative to reference.
Is rounding applied?
Results display with typical clinical precision, but you can adjust formatting as needed.
