Atmospheres to Kilograms Per Square Centimeter Conversion
Enter the pressure in atmospheres below to get the value converted to kilograms per square centimeter.
How to Convert Atmospheres to Kilograms Per Square Centimeter
To convert an atmosphere measurement to a kilogram per square centimeter measurement, multiply the pressure by the conversion ratio. One atmosphere is equal to 1.033227 kilograms per square centimeter, so use this simple formula to convert:
The pressure in kilograms per square centimeter is equal to the atmospheres multiplied by 1.033227.
Atmospheres and kilograms per square centimeter are both units used to measure pressure. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Atmospheres
The atmosphere is a reference measure of pressure equal to 101,325 pascals or 1,013,250 dynes. The atmosphere was originally defined as the pressure of 760 millimeters of mercury at standard gravity at 0 °C, but was later redefined in 1954 to be equal to 1,013,250 dynes.
Atmospheres can be abbreviated as atm, for example 1 atmosphere can be written as 1 atm.
Kilograms Per Square Centimeter
One kilogram per square centimeter is the pressure of equal to one kilogram-force per square centimeter.
The kilogram per square centimeter is a non-SI metric unit for pressure. A kilogram per square centimeter is sometimes also referred to as a kilogram per square centimetre or kilogram-force per centimeter square. Kilograms per square centimeter can be abbreviated as kgf/cm², for example 1 kilogram per square centimeter can be written as 1 kgf/cm².
In formal expressions, the slash, or solidus (/), is used to separate units used to indicate division in an expression.[1]
The unit is deprecated and not permitted for use with SI units, although it is still in use as some precision measuring devices still use the unit.
Kilograms per square centimeter can be expressed using the formula:
1 kgf/cm2 = 1 kgfcm2
Pressure in kilograms per square centimeter are equal to the kilogram-force divided by the area in square centimeters.
