How many mm Hg in 1 inHg? The answer is 25.400000197459. We assume you are converting between millimeter mercury [0 °C] and inch of mercury [0 °C]. You can view more details on each measurement unit: mm Hg or inHg The SI derived unit for pressure is the pascal. 1 pascal is equal to 0.0075006157584566 mm Hg, or 0.00029529983071445 inHg. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between millimeters mercury and inches of mercury.

1 mm Hg to inHg = 0.03937 inHg
10 mm Hg to inHg = 0.3937 inHg
20 mm Hg to inHg = 0.7874 inHg
30 mm Hg to inHg = 1.1811 inHg
40 mm Hg to inHg = 1.5748 inHg
50 mm Hg to inHg = 1.9685 inHg
100 mm Hg to inHg = 3.93701 inHg

You can do the reverse unit conversion from inHg to mm Hg, or enter any two units below:
The millimeter of mercury by definition is 133.322387415 Pa (13.5951 g/cm3 × 9.80665 m/s2 × 1 mm), which is approximated with known accuracies of density of mercury and standard gravity.
The torr is defined as 1/760 of one standard atmosphere, while the atmosphere is defined as 101325 pascals. Therefore, 1 Torr is equal to
101325/760 Pa. The decimal form of this fraction is approximately 133.322368421.
The relationship between the torr and the millimeter of mercury is:
1 Torr = 0.999999857533699 mmHg
1 mmHg = 1.000000142466321 Torr
The difference between one millimeter of mercury and one torr, as well as between one atmosphere (101.325 kPa) and 760 mmHg (101.3250144354 kPa), is less than one part in seven million (or less than 0.000015%). This small difference is negligible for most applications outside metrology.
Inches of mercury or inHg is a non-SI unit for pressure. It is still widely used for barometric pressure in weather reports and aviation in the United States, but is considered somewhat outdated elsewhere.
It is defined as the pressure exerted by a column of mercury of 1 inch in height at 32 °F (0 °C) at the standard acceleration of gravity.
1 inHg = 3,386.389 pascals at 0 °C.
Aircraft operating at higher altitudes (above 18,000 feet) set their barometric altimeters to a standard pressure of 29.92 inHg or 1,013.2 hPa (1 hPa = 1 mbar) regardless of the actual sea level pressure, with inches of mercury used in the U.S. and Canada. The resulting altimeter readings are known as flight levels.
Piston engine aircraft with constant-speed propellers also use inHg to measure manifold pressure, which is indicative of engine power produced.
