Converting from Thousand Pounds Per Square Inch (ksi) to Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²) in Pressure

What is Thousand Pounds Per Square Inch (ksi)

Thousand pounds per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure commonly used in engineering to measure the stress on materials. It represents one thousand pounds of force applied over one square inch of area.

What is Newton per Square Millimeter (N/mm²)

Newton per square millimeter (N/mm²) is the metric unit of pressure that measures the force applied per unit area. It is commonly used in scientific and engineering applications where the metric system is preferred.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between ksi and N/mm² are as follows:

• To convert from ksi to N/mm²: N/mm2=ksi×6.894757

• To convert from N/mm² to ksi: ksi=N/mm2×0.1450377

Examples

• Converting 10 ksi to N/mm²:

N/mm2=10×6.894757=68.94757

• Converting 15 N/mm² to ksi:

ksi=15×0.1450377=2.175566
