FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mmHg to inHg?
1 mmHg equals 0.03937007 inHg. To convert, multiply the value in millimetres of mercury by 0.03937007.
How do I convert 1 mmHg to inHg?
1 mmHg = 0.0393701 inHg. For any value, multiply by 0.03937007.
How do I convert inHg back to mmHg?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 25.4. So 1 inHg = 25.4 mmHg.
When would I need to convert millimetre of mercury to inch of mercury (0 °C)?
Pressure conversions between mmHg and inHg 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).
