How to Convert Megapascals to Pounds per Square Inch

Conversion factor:

1MPa=145.03768psi1\,\text{MPa} = 145.03768\,\text{psi}

Inverse factor:

1psi=0.00689MPa1\,\text{psi} = 0.00689\,\text{MPa}

Example

Convert 15 MPa to psi:

psi=MPa×145.03768\text{psi} = \text{MPa} \times 145.03768
psi=15×145.03768\text{psi} = 15 \times 145.03768
psi=2175.56521\text{psi} = 2175.56521
=2175.56521psi= 2175.56521 \, \text{psi}
