PSI ↔ Bar

Convert tire and compressor pressures between psi and bar with pascal-based international factors.

Pascal-based
Tire & tools
Bidirectional

Forward converts psi to bar via pascals. Reverse converts bar to psi. 1 bar = 100,000 Pa.

Limitation: Gauge vs absolute pressure is not distinguished—enter the number from your gauge or datasheet as labeled.

How to Convert PSI and Bar

Choose direction and enter a non-negative pressure reading.

1

Choose psi → bar or reverse.

Gauge labels

Many EU tires show bar; US gauges show psi. Convert the number as printed—do not mix gauge and absolute without knowing the reference.

What the Pressure Means

Forward converts psi to bar via pascals. Reverse converts bar to psi. 1 bar = 100,000 Pa.

Worked Examples

32 psi tire

Inputs

value:32
direction:forward

Result

≈ 2.206 bar

32 × 6894.757… / 1e5.

2.5 bar

Inputs

value:2.5
direction:reverse

Result

≈ 36.259 psi

2.5 × 1e5 / 6894.757…

Check the other direction

Flip to reverse and paste the output to confirm you land back near the original value.
