Understanding Pressure Conversion

What is a Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²)?

A kilogram per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure equal to the pressure exerted by a force of one kilogram-force applied to an area of one square centimeter. While it's a deprecated unit, it's still commonly used in some engineering applications and precision measuring devices.

What is a Millibar (mbar)?

A millibar (mbar) is a unit of pressure equal to one-thousandth of a bar. It's commonly used in meteorology and is exactly equal to one hectopascal (hPa). The millibar is particularly useful for measuring atmospheric pressure.
