FAQ

What is the conversion factor from N/mm² to Mpsi?
1 N/mm² equals 0.0001450377 Mpsi. To convert, multiply the value in newtons per square millimetre (stress) by 0.0001450377.
How do I convert 1 N/mm² to Mpsi?
1 N/mm² = 0.000145038 Mpsi. For any value, multiply by 0.0001450377.
How do I convert Mpsi back to N/mm²?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 6894.757. So 1 Mpsi = 6894.76 N/mm².
When would I need to convert newton per square millimetre (stress) to megapound-force per square inch (stress)?
Stress conversions between N/mm² and Mpsi are routine in mechanics-of-materials work: yield, ultimate and allowable-stress specification, Young's-modulus tables and structural-design code calculations. MPa and N/mm² dominate ISO and European datasheets, psi and ksi dominate US structural codes, and kgf/cm² and kgf/mm² appear in legacy JIS and heavy-engineering documentation. Stress is the same physical dimension as pressure but a different engineering quantity — this category is mechanics-of-materials, not process pressure.
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).
