hPa to PSI is a less common conversion of pressure units. We will learn how to convert hPa (hectopascals) to PSI units. To help you out, we have also created a hPa to PSI calculator (insert hPa, get PSI) and included a conversion chart ranging from 0.01 hPa to 10,000 hPa.
Here is what we are converting:
- hPa or hectoPascal is an SI unit of pressure equal to 100 Pa. While 1 Pa is equal to pressure 1 Newton of force makes on 1 square meter of surface, 1 hectopascal is equal to 100 Newtons of force being exerted on 1 square meter of surface.
- PSI or Pound per Square Inch is a common US and UK unit for measuring pressure. It is equal to force created by 1 pound of weight exerted on 1 square inch of pressure.
To convert hPa to PSI, you only need to know this conversion rule:
1 hPa = 0.0145 PSI
Basically, 1 hPa is equal to 0.0145 PSI. To calculate PSI from hPa, you thus need to multiply hPa by 0.0145.
Example: How many PSI is 180 hPA? Here’s the calculation:
180 hPA × 0.0145 = 2.61 PSI
In short, 180 hPa is equal to 2.61 PSI.
The following hPa to PSI calculator will help you make this calculation automatically. Below the calculator, you will also find a hectopascal to PSI conversion chart:

Here is how you can use this calculator:
Let’s say you want to convert 250 hPa to PSI. Just insert ‘250’ in the calculator and you will get the result: 250 hPA is equal to 3.625 PSI.
The conversion chart nicely sums up all the important hPA to PSI conversions:
