Converting from Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²) to Megapascal (MPa) in Pressure

What is Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²)

Kilogram per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure commonly used in various fields. It represents the amount of force exerted on a surface per unit area in kilograms of force per square centimeter.

What is Megapascal (MPa)

Megapascal (MPa) is another unit of pressure often used in engineering and scientific applications. It measures stress or pressure by indicating the force applied per unit area in megapascals.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from kilogram per square centimeter to megapascal, you can use the following formulas:

MPa=0.0980665×kgf/cm²

kgf/cm²=10.19716×MPa

Examples

• 4 kgf/cm² is equal to 0.392266 MPa
• 12 kgf/cm² is equal to 1.176798 MPa
• 3 kgf/cm² is equal to 0.2941995 MPa

This conversion is useful when working with pressure values in different units and allows for accurate comparisons and calculations between kilogram per square centimeter and megapascal.
