What are Psi and Kilonewton square Meter

PSI, or pounds per square inch, is a unit of pressure used to quantify the force applied over a square inch area. One PSI equals the pressure resulting from a one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.

A kilonewton per square meter (kN/m²) is a metric unit of pressure. It is defined as one kilonewton of force applied over an area of one square meter. This unit is widely used in engineering and construction.

History of Psi and Kilonewton square Meter

The Psi to Kilonewton square Meter Converter originates from the need to translate the imperial unit of pressure, PSI, commonly used in the U.S., to the metric unit, kN/m², widely accepted internationally. This conversion tool aids engineers, technicians, and students in bridging the gap between these units for various applications.
