How to Convert Kilograms per Square Centimeter to Torr

To convert a measurement in kilograms per square centimeter to a measurement in torr, multiply the pressure by the following conversion ratio: 735.55924 torr/kilogram per square centimeter.

Since one kilogram per square centimeter is equal to 735.55924 torr, you can use this simple formula to convert:

torr = kilograms per square centimeter × 735.55924

The pressure in torr is equal to the pressure in kilograms per square centimeter multiplied by 735.55924.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilograms per square centimeter to torr using the formula above.
torr = (5 kgf/cm² × 735.55924) = 3,677.7962 Torr

Kilograms per square centimeter and torr are both units used to measure pressure. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Are 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 the expressions of units, the slash, or solidus (/), is used to express a change in one or more units relative to a change in one or more other units.[1] For example, kgf/cm² is expressing a change in weight relative to a change in area.

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 kgf / cm2

Pressure in kilograms per square centimeter are equal to the kilogram-force divided by the area in square centimeters.

What Is a Torr?

The torr is a measure of pressure equal to 1/760 of an atmosphere. Torr is based on an absolute scale of pressure, which is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure plus the gauge pressure.

The torr is a non-SI metric unit for pressure. Torr can be abbreviated as Torr; for example, 1 torr can be written as 1 Torr.
