Conversion formula

Forward
bars = torr × 0.001333
Reverse
torr = bars × 750.062

Example: 10 Torr × 0.001333 = 0.01333 bar.

About both units

From

Torr

Torr

The torr equals 1/760 atm — approximately 133.32 Pa. Essentially equivalent to mmHg but defined slightly differently. Used in vacuum-system engineering and older physics.

Real-world: Low-vacuum: 760 to 25 torr. High-vacuum: 10⁻³ to 10⁻⁹ torr. Semiconductor fabrication: often below 10⁻⁶ torr.

Bar

bar

The bar equals 100,000 pascals — slightly less than one atmosphere (1.01325 bar). It is a convenient unit for everyday pressures: tyre pressures, diving depth, weather fronts. Common in European engineering.

Real-world: Car tyre: 2.0–2.5 bar. SCUBA at 10 m depth: 2 bar absolute. Fire hose: 5–7 bar.

Tips & common mistakes

Quick tips

  • 1 Torr ≈ 1 mmHg (differ by ~1 ppm — negligible in practice).
  • 1 atm = 760 Torr exactly.
  • Named after Evangelista Torricelli, inventor of the barometer.

Avoid these

  • Assuming torr and mmHg are truly identical — they differ by ~10⁻⁷; only matters in metrology.
  • Using Torr in everyday context — obscure outside vacuum engineering.
  • Mixing Torr and mTorr without specification.

Frequently asked questions

How many bars in a torr?
One torr equals 0.001333 bars.
How do I convert torr to bars?
Multiply the torr value by 0.001333 to get the equivalent in bars.
What is 100 torr in bars?
100 torr equals 0.1333 bars.
Is a torr bigger than a bar?
No. 1 torr equals 0.001333 bars, so one torr is smaller.
How to convert torr to bars without a calculator?
Multiply by 0 for a quick estimate; use a calculator for precise results.
