Convert Torr to Megapascals
1 torr is 0.000133 MPa. One torr is exactly 0.000133322368421 megapascals.
One torr is 1.3332 × 10^-4 megapascals. To convert torr to megapascals, multiply by 1.3332 × 10^-4; to go the other way, divide by 1.3332 × 10^-4 or multiply by 7500.6168. The factor is exact rather than rounded: it follows from NIST Special Publication 811. Exactly one seven-hundred-and-sixtieth of a standard atmosphere.

Factors are entered by hand from NIST Special Publication 811 rather than derived from a units library, so the ones that terminate are exact rather than rounded.
How do you convert torr to megapascals?
- 1.Take the measurement in torr.
- 2.Multiply by 1.3332 × 10^-4 — that is how many megapascals fit in one torr.
- 3.To go back the other way, divide by 1.3332 × 10^-4, or multiply by 7500.6168.
Worked example: 25 torr to megapascals
- Formula
- Torr × 1.3332 × 10^-4 = MPa
- Arithmetic
- 25 × 1.3332 × 10^-4 = 0.003333 MPa
- Answer
- 25 Torr = 0.003333 MPa
The factor is rounded for display; the figure above is computed from the full value.

What is a torr?
Exactly one seven-hundred-and-sixtieth of a standard atmosphere. Within a millionth of a millimetre of mercury, which is what it replaced, and still the unit of vacuum work.
What is a megapascal?
A million pascals. Concrete strength and hydraulic ratings are specified here: 30 MPa concrete is about 4,350 psi.
How many megapascals are in a torr?
One torr is 1.3332 × 10^-4 megapascals. Going the other way, one megapascal is 7500.6168 torr. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
