How to Convert Torr to Kilogram-force per Square Centimetre
- 1 Torr = 0.001359509806 kgf/cm²
- 1 kgf/cm² = 735.5592401 Torr
- Example: convert 15 Torr to kgf/cm²: 15 Torr = 15 × 0.001359509806 kgf/cm² = 0.02039264709 kgf/cm²
Formula
kgf/cm² = Torr × 0.001359509806316
or kgf/cm² = Torr ÷ 735.5592400691
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 Torr = 101325/760 Pa = 133.3223684 Pa (1/760 of a standard atmosphere)
- 1 kgf/cm² = 9.80665 N ÷ 10⁻⁴ m² = 98 066.5 Pa (exact), also called the technical atmosphere (at)
- 1 Torr = 133.3223684211 Pa ÷ 98066.5 Pa per kgf/cm² = 0.001359509806316 kgf/cm²
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Torr definition: torr; Kilogram-force per Square Centimetre definition: kilogram-force per square centimetre.
Worked examples
- A reading of 0.1 Torr converts to 0.0001359509806 kgf/cm².
0.1 Torr × 0.001359509806 = 0.0001359509806 kgf/cm² - A value of 100 Torr is 0.1359509806 kgf/cm².
100 Torr × 0.001359509806 = 0.1359509806 kgf/cm²
