Megapascal to bars Conversion

1 megapascal (MPa) is equal to 10 bars (bar).

1 MPa = 10 bar

or

1 bar = 0.1 MPa

Formula

To convert a pressure from megapascal (MPa) to bars (bar), multiply the pressure in megapascal by 10

p(bar) = p(MPa) × 10

Examples:

Convert 5 megapascal to bars:

p(bar) = 5MPa × 10 = 50 bar

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert megapascal to bars?

Multiply the value in megapascal by 10 to get the result in bars. For example, 5 MPa × 10 = 50 bar.

How many bars are in 1 megapascal?

1 megapascal (MPa) is equal to 10 bars (bar).

How do I convert bars back to megapascal?

Use the inverse operation: divide the value in bars by 10 to get the result in megapascal.

How accurate is the megapascal to bars conversion?

The converter multiplies by the conversion factor 10 and rounds the result to 9 decimal places by default. You can increase or reduce the precision with the digits option on this page.
