About Torr and PSI (Pounds/sq in)

Torr (Torr)

A torr is 1/760 of an atmosphere, essentially equal to one millimeter of mercury.

Where it's used: Vacuum systems and blood-pressure history (mmHg).

PSI (Pounds/sq in) (psi)

PSI (pounds per square inch) measures pressure in pounds of force per square inch, about 6,895 pascals.

Where it's used: Tire pressures, air compressors, hydraulic systems, and plumbing in the US.

Pressure represents force acting over a unit of area. Standard pressure scales like PSI, bar, kilopascals (kPa), and atmospheres (atm) are utilized in HVAC, hydraulics, automotive tire inflation, and pneumatic tool operations.

Converting pressure ratings accurately is essential for equipment safety. For instance, European machinery gauges often use bar, whereas American compressors use PSI, necessitating quick conversions to prevent system over-pressurization. Our pressure calculators help technicians easily convert between scales, ensuring pressure vessels, hydraulic lines, and automotive tires are maintained at the correct operational levels.

How to Convert Torr to PSI (Pounds/sq in)

How many psi (pounds/sq in)s are in one torr?
One Torr (Torr) equals 0.019337 PSI (Pounds/sq in) (psi). To convert torrs to psi (pounds/sq in)s, multiply the torr value by 0.019337.
How do I convert Torr to PSI (Pounds/sq in)?
Multiply your torr value by 0.019337 to get the result in PSI (Pounds/sq in): psi = Torr × 0.019337. For example, 5 Torr = 0.096684 psi.
