Pound Per Square Inch (abbreviations: psi, or lb/in2): is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.
Bar (abbreviation: bar): is a metric (still not approved by the International System of Units, SI) unit of pressure. It is exactly equal to 100,000 Pa and slightly lower than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth, at sea level.
How to Convert Pounds Per Square Inches to Bars
Example: How many Bars are equivalent to 52.1 pounds per square inches?
As;
1 pounds per square inches = 0.06895 Bars
52.1 pounds per square inches = Y Bars
