Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
kPa = mmHg × 0.1333224
Multiply any value in millimetres of mercury by 0.1333224 to obtain the value in kilopascals.
Worked example
Convert 760 mmHg to kPa.
- 01Start with 760 mmHg.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 760 × 0.1333224 = 101.325 kPa.
Result760 mmHg = 101.325 kPa

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mmHg to kPa?
1 mmHg equals 0.1333224 kPa. To convert, multiply the value in millimetres of mercury by 0.1333224.
How do I convert 1 mmHg to kPa?
1 mmHg = 0.133322 kPa. For any value, multiply by 0.1333224.
How do I convert kPa back to mmHg?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 7.500616. So 1 kPa = 7.50062 mmHg.
When would I need to convert millimetre of mercury to kilopascal?
Pressure conversions between mmHg and kPa 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).
