Quick Answer

Formula: Megapascal = Torr × 0.0001333

Multiply any torr value by 0.0001333 to get megapascal.

Reverse: Torr = Megapascal × 7501

Frequently Asked Questions

About Torr and Megapascal

Torr (Torr)

The torr was named after Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the mercury barometer in 1644. One torr is defined as 1/760 of standard atmospheric pressure (133.322 Pa), and is equal to 1 mmHg at 0°C.

Torr is the standard pressure unit in vacuum science and semiconductor manufacturing. High vacuum systems operate at 10⁻³ to 10⁻⁷ torr. Ultra-high vacuum (used in particle accelerators) reaches below 10⁻¹⁰ torr.

Interesting fact: Torricelli's original barometer experiment used a 1-meter tube of mercury that settled at 760 mm above the reservoir — directly defining the unit that would later bear his name.

Megapascal (MPa)

The megapascal (MPa) equals 1,000,000 pascals (1,000 kPa) and is the standard unit for high-pressure engineering applications including hydraulics, structural materials, and industrial processes.

Steel has a tensile strength of about 400–550 MPa; concrete compressive strength is typically 20–40 MPa. Hydraulic systems in heavy machinery operate at 20–35 MPa. Water jet cutting uses pressures up to 600 MPa.

Interesting fact: The deepest point in the ocean (Mariana Trench, ~11,000 m) has a pressure of about 110 MPa — over 1,000 times atmospheric pressure.

About Torr to Megapascal Conversion

Converting torr to megapascal is a common task in engineering, medicine, meteorology, and science. Different industries and countries use different pressure units — PSI in the US, bar in Europe, mmHg in medicine, and pascals in physics — making accurate conversion essential for cross-disciplinary work.

Quick reference: 5 Torr = 0.0006666 MPa and 10 Torr = 0.001333 MPa. For the reverse: 1 MPa = 7501 Torr. The exact factor is 1 Torr = 0.0001333 MPa.

All conversions use IEEE 754 double-precision arithmetic, accurate to at least 8 significant figures.
