The kilogram used here is a unit of pressure; the unit is barg, which corresponds to a weight of 1 kg applied over an area of 1 square centimeter, approximately 0.1 MPa.

In China, it is customary to measure pressure in kilograms, especially among those who work using traditional manufacturing methods. Actually, converting to the International System of Units is very simple – just multiply by 0.1.
