Formula

Formula
mTorr = inHg × 25400.01

Multiply any value in inches of mercury (vacuum) by 25400.01 to obtain the value in millitorr.

Worked example

Convert 1 inHg to mTorr.

  1. 01Start with 1 inHg.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 25400.01 = 25400 mTorr.
Result1 inHg = 25400 mTorr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from inHg to mTorr?
1 inHg equals 25400.01 mTorr. To convert, multiply the value in inches of mercury (vacuum) by 25400.01.
How do I convert 1 inHg to mTorr?
1 inHg = 25400 mTorr. For any value, multiply by 25400.01.
How do I convert mTorr back to inHg?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 3.937007e-5. So 1 mTorr = 3.93701e-5 inHg.
When would I need to convert inch of mercury (vacuum) to millitorr?
Vacuum-pressure conversions between inHg and mTorr are common in vacuum-chamber instrumentation, pump-down endpoint specification, semiconductor and deposition process work, freeze-drying, electron-microscopy column pressure, vacuum metallurgy and HVAC / refrigeration service. Torr, mmHg and inHg dominate manometric vacuum gauges; mbar is standard on European instruments; micron Hg and mTorr cover high-vacuum work; Pa and kPa are the SI references. This category is vacuum / instrumentation intent — dimensionally the same as pressure, but kept separate so process-pressure searches and vacuum searches stay on the right page.
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).
