How to convert common pressure units?

How to convert between common pressure units? Pounds, PSI, MPA, kilograms, etc.
No formula for converting pounds (lb) to MPa has been found, but the corresponding relationship can be easily looked up in manuals. For example, 2 MPa is equivalent to 150 lb, 5 MPa is equivalent to 300 lb, 6.8 MPa is equivalent to 400 lb, and so on. 1MPa = 10 kilograms of pressure. 1PSI = 6.8946KPa. 1MPa = 10bar
1 atm=1.033kgf/cm2 =1.013Bar =0.1013Mpa =760mmHg =14.7psi=14.7pounds per square inch =760torques
There are plenty of unit converters on the forum; just download them and use them!
1 PSI = pounds per square inch = 0.07 kilograms per square centimeter. 1 kilogram per square centimeter = 14.22 pounds per square inch (PSI). ASME pressure classes: ASME Class 150, 300, 400, 600, 900. Nominal pressure in MPa: 0.6 MPa, 1.0 MPa, 1.6 MPa, 2.0 MPa, 2.5 MPa, 4.0 MPa, 5.0 MPa, 6.4 MPa, 10.0 MPa, 15.0 MPa.

1 MPa = 10 kilograms of pressure. 1 PSI = 6.8946 KPa. 1 MPa = 10 bars. 10 is actually 9. Approximation of 81
The poster can do the conversion on the following website: http://www.xagjm.com/hsuan.htm :)
