About the PSI to Bar Converter
This free PSI to bar converter divides by 14.5037738, the exact number of psi in one bar. Enter pounds per square inch to see bar, or type bar to convert back — both fields stay synced.
The classic use is tire pressure: gauges and pumps in Pakistan and the US read psi, while European car manuals, motorcycle specs and premium inflators quote bar. The standard 30–35 psi car range is 2.07–2.41 bar; road bike tires at 100 psi run 6.89 bar. The same conversion covers air compressors, pressure washers, fuel systems and scuba regulators.
The reference table spans 20–150 psi, with the everyday tire values called out.

What tire pressure is 2.4 bar in psi?
2.4 bar is 34.8 psi — often the recommended pressure for a loaded car or highway driving. If your door sticker says 2.2/2.4 bar front/rear, set your psi gauge to about 32 and 35.
How many bar is 100 psi?
100 psi equals 6.895 bar. That's typical for road bike tires (80–120 psi = 5.5–8.3 bar) and near the maximum of many home air compressors (115–150 psi = 7.9–10.3 bar).
Is psi or bar the bigger unit?
Bar is much bigger — one bar equals about 14.5 psi. So pressures expressed in bar are smaller numbers: atmospheric pressure is about 1.013 bar but 14.7 psi.
