Multiply the value in bar by 0.1 to get megapascals. 1 bar equals 0.1 MPa, and 1 MPa equals 10 bar.
About these units
The bar is a metric pressure unit equal to 100 kilopascals, close to one atmosphere. European pneumatic and hydraulic equipment is rated in bar.
The megapascal equals one million pascals, or one newton per square millimeter. Material strengths such as yield and tensile are published in megapascals.
