Kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm²) is a unit of pressure where one kgf/mm² equals the pressure exerted by a one kilogram-force acting on an area of one square millimeter. This metric unit is commonly used in engineering and material science to express extreme pressures, such as in material stress tests.
Definition of BarA bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as exactly 100,000 pascals. It is about equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. Although not an SI unit, the bar is widely used in scientific contexts, meteorology, and engineering to measure pressures, with one bar being slightly less than the average atmospheric pressure.
