Kilopascals to Megapascals

Convert kilopascals (kPa) to megapascals (MPa). Type in either box; the other updates as you go.

⇄

1 kPa = 0.001 MPa

1 kilopascal equals0.001 MPa
1 megapascal equals1,000 kPa
FormulaMPa = kPa × 0.001

How to convert kilopascals to megapascals

To convert kilopascals to megapascals, multiply the number of kilopascals by 0.001.

MPa = kPa × 0.001

Example

Convert 5 kilopascals to megapascals:

5 kPa × 0.001 = 0.005 MPa

About the units

Kilopascal (kPa)

A kilopascal is 1,000 pascals. Tire pressure outside the US is often given in kPa.

Megapascal (MPa)

A megapascal is 1,000,000 pascals. Material strength and hydraulic pressure are given in MPa.
