MPa to kPa converter

1 megapascal equals 1,000 kilopascals. Conversions use kPa = MPa × 1000

MPa → 1,000 kPa

kPa = MPa × 1000

Converter

Worked examples

1 MPa = 1,000 kPa
2 MPa = 2,000 kPa
5 MPa = 5,000 kPa
10 MPa = 10,000 kPa
100 MPa = 100,000 kPa

Questions

How many kilopascals in 1 megapascal?

Exactly 1,000 kPa. The factor follows from the definitions of both units, not from a measurement, so it is exact.

How do I convert MPa to kPa?

Multiply the megapascals figure by 1000 — or use the converter above, which updates as you type.

Is MPa to kPa the same as kPa to MPa?

No — they are inverses. One MPa is 1,000 kPa, while one kPa is 0.001 MPa.

What is 1 MPa in kPa?

1 MPa = 1,000 kPa (see the value page for the full arithmetic).
