Convert Megapascals to Kilopascals (MPa to kPa)
1 MPa = 1000 kPa. Convert megapascals to kilopascals with the exact factor, a common-values table and a free converter.
Conversion factor
kPa = MPa × 1000
1 MPa = 1000 kPa
Multiply by 1000 kPa to go from megapascals to kilopascals, or divide by it to come back. The factor and every value below are computed by the same converter that runs at /convert, so this page and the tool cannot disagree.
MPa to kPa table
| Megapascals (MPa) | Kilopascals (kPa) |
|---|---|
| 1 MPa | 1000 kPa |
| 2 MPa | 2000 kPa |
| 5 MPa | 5000 kPa |
| 10 MPa | 10000 kPa |
| 20 MPa | 20000 kPa |
| 50 MPa | 50000 kPa |
| 100 MPa | 100000 kPa |
Every figure is computed at build time by the site’s own converter from the pressure unit registry. For a value that is not listed, put it into the interactive converter.
Frequently asked questions
How many kilopascals are in one megapascal?
One megapascal is 1000 kPa, so 100 MPa is 100000 kPa.
What is the formula to convert megapascals to kilopascals?
kPa = MPa × 1000. Multiply the value in megapascals by 1000 to get kilopascals.
How do I convert kilopascals back to megapascals?
MPa = kPa × 0.001, so 1 kPa is 0.001 MPa. The kPa to MPa page carries the same table in that direction.
