Atmospheres to Psi

One atmosphere is the average air pressure at sea level, used as a reference unit in chemistry and physics. Pounds per square inch is the standard pressure unit for tire inflation and plumbing in the US. 1 atm equals ≈14.6959 psi, so converting between them is a matter of multiplying by that fixed factor — type any value into the converter below and both sides update instantly as you type.

Both units belong to pressure, measured here against pressure's base unit (Pa) — every other pressure unit on this site converts through that same reference point, which is why the table below can also be read as a quick cross-check against nearby values.

Formula

psi = atm × ≈14.6959

atm = psi × ≈0.068046

Worked example: 5 atm × ≈14.6959 = ≈73.4797 psi.

Frequently asked

How many PSI in a atmosphere?
1 atm equals ≈14.6959 psi.
How do I convert Atmospheres to PSI?
Multiply the value in atm by ≈14.6959 to get psi. The converter above does this instantly as you type.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes — Atmosphere and PSI are both defined by a fixed conversion factor to pressure's base unit (Pa), so the result shown is exact to the precision displayed, not an approximation.
