About the units
- Millibar
- One thousandth of a bar, exactly 100 pascals, the same as one hectopascal.
- Inch of mercury
- The pressure of a one inch mercury column at conventional density and standard gravity, about 3386.389 Pa. Common in aviation and US weather reports.
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 inches of mercury are in one millibar?
1 mbar = 0.02953 inHg exactly.
How do I convert millibar to inches of mercury?
Use inHg = mbar × 0.0295299833. For example, 25 mbar = 0.73825 inHg.
How many millibar are in one inch of mercury?
1 inHg = 33.8639 mbar.
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.
