Use this page to convert hectopascal values into pascal, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

1 hPa = 100 Pa

1 Pa = 0.01 hPa

Example: 35 hPa = 3,500 Pa

Hectopascal (hPa) is represented in this converter as 100 pascals.

History: Hectopascal follows SI prefix conventions for scaling the pascal up or down by powers of ten.

Current use: Hectopascal is useful in science, engineering, meteorology, and technical pressure specifications.

Also written as hPa.

A pascal is one newton per square meter.

History: It is named after Blaise Pascal and formalized in the SI system.

Current use: Pascals are used in science and engineering.

Also written as Pa, pascals.
