How to convert kilopascals to pascals
Pa = kPa × 1,000Multiply the value in kilopascals by 1,000. To go the other way, multiply by 0.001 (or divide by 1,000).
A kilopascal is larger than a pascal: one kilopascal contains 1,000 pascals.

About the units
Kilopascal (kPa)
One thousand pascals. Tire pressures outside the US are often given in kPa (220–250 kPa for a car). One kilopascal equals 1,000 pascals (Pa).
Pascal (Pa)
One newton per square metre — a very small pressure. Atmospheric pressure is about 101,325 Pa.
Frequently asked questions
How many pascals are in one kilopascal?
There are 1,000 pascals in one kilopascal, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert kilopascals to pascals?
Multiply the number of kilopascals by 1,000. For example, 10 kPa × 1,000 = 10,000 Pa.
How many kilopascals are in one pascal?
One pascal equals 0.001 kilopascals. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 1,000.
What is 10 kilopascals in pascals?
10 kPa = 10,000 Pa.
Is this kPa to Pa converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
