What Is This Tool?

This tool helps you easily convert pressure measurements from pound-force per square inch, an imperial unit, to kilogram-force per square centimeter, a non-SI metric unit used in some engineering and industrial contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the pressure value in pound-force per square inch (psi) you want to convert
  • Select pound-force per square inch as the input unit
  • Choose kilogram-force per square centimeter as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to see the equivalent pressure in kgf/cm²

Key Features

  • Converts pressure values from psi to kgf/cm² using the exact conversion rate
  • Supports common pressure units used in automotive, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems
  • Provides quick and clear examples for accurate conversions
  • Browser-based and easy to use without requiring installation
  • Ideal for interpreting legacy and regional engineering specifications

Examples

  • Convert 10 psi: 10 × 0.070306958 = 0.70306958 kgf/cm²
  • Convert 50 psi: 50 × 0.070306958 = 3.5153479 kgf/cm²

Common Use Cases

  • Translating pressure readings between imperial and non-SI metric units in automotive tire pressure gauges
  • Converting hydraulic and pneumatic system pressure specs for engineering maintenance
  • Interpreting pressure ratings on pumps, compressors, and valves documented in legacy units

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify units carefully when converting to avoid errors in technical data
  • Use this converter to understand specifications across different measurement systems
  • Keep in mind non-SI units like kgf/cm² may not be preferred in modern scientific contexts

Limitations

  • Kilogram-force per square centimeter is a legacy unit and may be outdated in scientific usage
  • Conversion accuracy can be affected by differences in base physical constants
  • Rounding and approximations may occur, so verify critical measurements carefully

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound-force per square inch measure?
It measures pressure as the force of one pound-force applied over one square inch of area.

Why convert psi to kilogram-force per square centimeter?
To translate pressure values between imperial units common in automotive and pneumatic systems and non-SI metric units found in older engineering contexts.

Is kilogram-force per square centimeter a standard scientific unit?
No, kilogram-force per square centimeter is a non-SI legacy unit that is less commonly used in modern scientific applications.

Key Terminology

Pound-force/square inch (psi)
An imperial pressure unit defined as one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch.
Kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²)
A non-SI unit of pressure equal to one kilogram-force applied uniformly on one square centimeter.
