Convert Kilopascals to pascals
1 kilopascal = 1,000 pascals · Pa = kPa × 1,000
When you need this conversion
This conversion goes from kilopascals, used on tire placards and in material specifications, to pascals, the SI pressure unit used in engineering. Both measure the same physical quantity, so the conversion is exact — the difference is which unit your source, tool, or region happens to use.

The formula
Pa = kPa × 1,000Because both units measure pressure, the conversion is a single multiplication by a fixed factor. That factor never changes, so the result is exact.
