Unit Information

Kilopascal (kPa)

Definition

The kilopascal (symbol: kPa) is a decimal multiple of the pascal, the SI unit of pressure. One kPa is equal to 1,000 pascals.

Current Use

The kilopascal is a common unit of pressure in many countries, used for measuring tire pressure, fluid pressure, and air pressure in various technical applications.

Pascal (Pa)

Definition

The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength. It is defined as one newton per square meter.

Current Use

The pascal is widely used in science and engineering. However, for many everyday applications, it is a very small unit, so kilopascals (kPa) or megapascals (MPa) are more common.
