Basics

Pressure:

1 psi = 0.069 bar

1 bar = 14.5 psi

1 kPa = 0.145 psi

1 MPa = 145 psi

Force:

1 lbf = 4.45 N

1 klbf = 1,000 lbf

1 kN = 1,000 N

Weight:

1 lb = 0.4536 kg

1 kg = 2.205 lbs

1 metric ton = 2,205 lbs / 1,000 kg

1 ton = 2,000 lbs / 907.18 kg

Temperature:

To convert °C to °F °F = (°C x 1.8) + 32

To convert °F to °C °C = (°F - 32) ÷ 1.8

Length:

1 in = 25.4 mm

1 mm = 0.039 in

1 ft = 0.3048 m

1 m = 3.2808 in

Area:

1 in² = 6.452 cm²

1 cm² = 0.155 in²

Power:

1 kW = 1.34 hp

1 hp = 0.746 kW

Volume:

1 in³ = 16.387 cm³ / 0.016 liter

1 cm³ = 0.061 in³ / 0.001 liter

1 liter = 61.02 in³ / 1,000 cm³
