FAQ
What is the conversion factor from kgf/mm² to inH₂O?
1 kgf/mm² equals 39370.08 inH₂O. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms-force per square millimetre by 39370.08.
How do I convert 1 kgf/mm² to inH₂O?
1 kgf/mm² = 39370.1 inH₂O. For any value, multiply by 39370.08.
How do I convert inH₂O back to kgf/mm²?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 2.54e-5. So 1 inH₂O = 2.54e-5 kgf/mm².
When would I need to convert kilogram-force per square millimetre to inch of water column (4 °C)?
Pressure conversions between kgf/mm² and inH₂O 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).
