Conversion formula

Forward
kilopascals = torr ร— 0.1333
Reverse
torr = kilopascals ร— 7.50062

Example: 10 Torr ร— 0.1333 = 1.33322 kPa.

About both units

From

Torr

Torr

The torr equals 1/760 atm โ€” 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: 10โปยณ to 10โปโน torr. Semiconductor fabrication: often below 10โปโถ torr.

Kilopascal

kPa

The kilopascal equals 1000 pascals. Used for tyre pressures in many metric countries, engineering pressures and weather reports. 100 kPa โ‰ˆ 1 bar โ‰ˆ atmospheric pressure.

Real-world: Tyre pressure: 220โ€“280 kPa. Atmospheric: 101 kPa. HVAC duct static: 0.1โ€“0.3 kPa.

Tips & common mistakes

Quick tips

  • 1 Torr โ‰ˆ 1 mmHg (differ by ~1 ppm โ€” 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 โ€” they differ by ~10โปโท; only matters in metrology.
  • Using Torr in everyday context โ€” obscure outside vacuum engineering.
  • Mixing Torr and mTorr without specification.

Frequently asked questions

How many kilopascals in a torr?
One torr equals 0.1333 kilopascals.
How do I convert torr to kilopascals?
Multiply the torr value by 0.1333 to get the equivalent in kilopascals.
What is 100 torr in kilopascals?
100 torr equals 13.3322 kilopascals.
Is a torr bigger than a kilopascal?
No. 1 torr equals 0.1333 kilopascals, so one torr is smaller.
How to convert torr to kilopascals without a calculator?
Multiply by 0.13 for a quick estimate; use a calculator for precise results.
