The kilopascal
The kilopascal (kPa) equals exactly 1,000 pascals. It is the standard pressure unit in modern meteorology, engineering specs outside the US, and most non-US tire-pressure recommendations.
1 kPa = 7.50062 mmHg
1 kilopascal equals 7.50062 millimeters of mercury. To convert kilopascals to millimeters of mercury, multiply the kilopascal value by 7.50062. For quick reference: 1 kPa = 7.50062 mmHg, 5 kPa = 37.5031 mmHg, 10 kPa = 75.0062 mmHg, 100 kPa = 750.062 mmHg.
Millimeters of mercury = Kilopascals × 7.50062Start with your value in kilopascals.
Multiply the kilopascal value by 7.50062. This is the exact conversion factor from kilopascals to millimeters of mercury.
The product is your value in millimeters of mercury. For example, 5 kPa × 7.50062 = 37.5031 mmHg.
The exact factor from kilopascals to millimeters of mercury is 7.50062.

Tire pressure for most passenger cars is around 220 kPa. Standard atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa. In millimeters of mercury, that gives you: 1 kPa = 7.50062 mmHg, 10 kPa = 75.0062 mmHg, 100 kPa = 750.062 mmHg.
The kilopascal (kPa) equals exactly 1,000 pascals. It is the standard pressure unit in modern meteorology, engineering specs outside the US, and most non-US tire-pressure recommendations.
The millimeter of mercury (mmHg) equals approximately 133.322 Pa — the pressure exerted by a 1 mm column of mercury under standard gravity. It is the conventional unit for blood pressure worldwide, even in countries that have otherwise gone fully metric.
