How to use it

  1. Type the value in the atmospheres box.
  2. Read the result in millimeters of mercury as you type, and pick the precision you need.
  3. Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.

How it is calculated

mmHg = atm × 759.9998917

Multiply the value in atmospheres by 759.9998917 to get millimeters of mercury.

Example

To convert 25 atm to millimeters of mercury: 25 × 759.9998917 = 19,000 mmHg.

About the units

Atmosphere
The standard atmosphere, defined as exactly 101,325 pascals.
Millimeter of mercury
The pressure of a 1 mm mercury column at the conventional density 13,595.1 kg/m³ and standard gravity: 133.322387415 Pa. Used for blood pressure.

Limits and caveats

  • Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
  • Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.

Questions about this tool

How many millimeters of mercury are in one atmosphere?

1 atm = 760 mmHg exactly.

How do I convert atmospheres to millimeters of mercury?

Use mmHg = atm × 759.9998917. For example, 25 atm = 19,000 mmHg.

How many atmospheres are in one millimeter of mercury?

1 mmHg = 0.00131579 atm.

What is the difference between gauge and absolute pressure?

Gauge pressure is measured from the surrounding air pressure, while absolute pressure starts from a perfect vacuum. These converters change the unit only, so a gauge reading stays a gauge reading.

Are torr and mmHg the same?

Almost. One torr is 101325/760 Pa, about 133.322368 Pa, and one conventional mmHg is 133.322387 Pa, a difference of less than one part per million. For everyday use you can treat them as equal.
