Convert centimeter mercury (0°C) to kilogram-force/sq. millimeter
Please provide values below to convert centimeter mercury (0°C) [cmHg] to kilogram-force/sq. millimeter [kgf/mm^2], or Convert kilogram-force/sq. millimeter to centimeter mercury (0°C).
1 cmHg = 0.000135950999577 kgf/mm^2. To convert centimeter mercury (0°C) to kilogram-force/sq. millimeter, multiply the value by 0.000135950999577; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kgf/mm^2 = 7355.59137566 cmHg). Both units measure pressure and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Centimeter Mercury (0°c)
Centimeter mercury (0°C) is a unit of pressure measurement representing the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of mercury at 0°C.
History/Origin
The centimeter mercury was historically used in barometry and pressure measurements before the adoption of the pascal. It originated from the use of mercury columns in barometers to measure atmospheric pressure, with the unit reflecting the height of the mercury column.
Current Use
Today, the centimeter mercury is largely obsolete and replaced by SI units like the pascal. However, it is still used in some medical and historical contexts to measure blood pressure and atmospheric pressure in certain regions.
Kilogram-Force/sq. Millimeter
Kilogram-force per square millimeter (kgf/mm²) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one kilogram-force applied over an area of one square millimeter.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the use of kilogram-force, a gravitational force unit based on the kilogram, and was commonly used in engineering and material science to measure pressure before the adoption of SI units. Its usage has declined with the standardization of the pascal (Pa).
Current Use
Today, kgf/mm² is still used in some engineering fields, especially in material strength and pressure measurements, but it is largely replaced by SI units like the pascal (Pa) or megapascals (MPa).
