Factor1 atm = 1.033227 kgf/cm²

Converter

atm

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
1.03323kgf/cm²

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
kgf/cm² = atm × 1.033227

Multiply any value in standard atmospheres by 1.033227 to obtain the value in kilograms-force per square centimetre.

Worked example

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from atm to kgf/cm²?
1 atm equals 1.033227 kgf/cm². To convert, multiply the value in standard atmospheres by 1.033227.
How do I convert 1 atm to kgf/cm²?
1 atm = 1.03323 kgf/cm². For any value, multiply by 1.033227.
How do I convert kgf/cm² back to atm?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.9678411. So 1 kgf/cm² = 0.967841 atm.
When would I need to convert standard atmosphere to kilogram-force per square centimetre?
Pressure conversions between atm and kgf/cm² are common when working with mixed-vendor instrumentation, when piping codes use different units to process datasheets, or when converting field readings into SI for hydraulic calculations.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
