The Atmospheres to BarsConverter is an online tool designed for converting pressure measurements between atmospheres (atm) and bars (bar). This calculator is a valuable resource for professionals and students in fields like meteorology, diving, and engineering.
Atmospheres to Bars Converter
Convert pressure between atmospheres and bars.
How to Use
To convert a pressure reading from atmospheres to bars, input the value in the atmospheres field. The equivalent pressure in bars will be automatically calculated and displayed in the bars field. To convert from bars to atmospheres, enter the value in the bars field, and the corresponding atmospheres value will be updated. This calculator facilitates bidirectional conversions.
Conversion Formula
The calculator uses the following conversion formulas:
- To convert atm to bar:
Bars = Atmospheres * 1.01325 - To convert bar to atm:
Atmospheres = Bars / 1.01325
Common Precalculated Values

| 2 | 2.0265 |
| 0.5 | 0.506625 |
| 3 | 3.03975 |
| 4 | 4.053 |
Educational Insight
An atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by the weight of the Earth’s atmosphere at sea level. One atmosphere is approximately equal to 1.01325 bars. The bar, on the other hand, is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). One bar is defined as 100,000 Pascals. Both units are commonly used in various scientific and industrial applications to measure pressure. This calculator helps in seamlessly converting these units, aiding in various practical and theoretical applications.
