Experience the ease of converting psi to N/m² with our Pound-force Square Inch to Newton Square Meter Converter, crafted by Newtum. Get reliable conversions in moments!
Pound-force per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the imperial system of measurement. It quantifies the force exerted in pounds on an area of one square inch. This unit is widely used in various industries such as automotive, aviation, and engineering to measure pressure levels in tires, hydraulic systems, and other pressurized compartments.
Definition of Newton per square meterNewton per square meter (N/m²) is the SI derived unit of pressure. It represents the force in newtons acting uniformly on a surface area of one square meter. This unit, also called a Pascal, is a fundamental measure in physics and engineering for expressing stress, tensile strength, and elastic moduli of materials.
