What are Megapascal and Kilogram-force per square millimeter

A Megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one million pascals. It's widely used in engineering to measure the tensile strength, Young's modulus, and the stress of materials. One MPa corresponds to the pressure exerted by one Newton force applied uniformly over a square meter area.

Kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm²) is a metric unit of pressure that is not a part of the International System of Units (SI). It represents the force of one kilogram exerted on an area of one square millimeter. This unit is commonly used in some fields of engineering and material science to describe tensile strength, yield strength, and other stress-related parameters of materials.

History of Megapascal and Kilogram-force per square millimeter

The conversion between Megapascal (MPa) and Kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm²) has its roots in engineering and material science. The need to relate units of pressure and force per unit area for material testing and specification led to the development of unit converters like this one.
