Pound per Square Inch (psi) (psi)
Pounds per square inch (psi) measures force in pounds distributed over each square inch of area.
PSI is the default for US tire pressure, HVAC systems, hydraulics, and many industrial pressure ratings.

1 psi = 0.0680459639 atm
1 atm = 14.6959487755 psi
To convert pound per square inch (psi) to standard atmosphere, multiply by 0.0680459639.
To convert standard atmosphere to pound per square inch (psi), multiply by 14.6959487755.
Example: convert 10 psi to atm
10 × 0.0680459639 = 0.6804596391 atm
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
Pounds per square inch (psi) measures force in pounds distributed over each square inch of area.
PSI is the default for US tire pressure, HVAC systems, hydraulics, and many industrial pressure ratings.
The standard atmosphere (atm) is defined as exactly 101,325 pascals — average sea-level atmospheric pressure.
Atmospheres compare scuba tank fills, describe laboratory reference pressure, and normalize gas volumes.
atm = psi × 0.0680459639psi = atm × 14.6959487755, using the same exact factors as this converter.Jump to any pressure conversion starting from pound per square inch (psi) — including the reverse direction and every other unit in our dataset.
