What are InchMercury60F and Ksi

An inch of mercury at 60 degrees Fahrenheit (inHg60F) is a unit of pressure. It represents the pressure exerted by a column of mercury one inch high at 60°F on a surface. Atmospheric pressure is often measured in inches of mercury, which indicates the force of the atmosphere against a surface.

Ksi is a unit of pressure or stress. It stands for kilopounds per square inch, where one ksi equals 1,000 psi. It is commonly used in materials science and engineering to express tensile and yield strength of materials, indicating how much force a material can withstand per square inch before deformation.
