Unit conversion

Msi to MPa

Calculation software and Eurocode-style checks often take the modulus in MPa (N/mm²), while US data sheets give it in Msi. Multiply Msi by 6,894.757 to get MPa.

Try:

Inch profile size to a metric catalog size

Enter the size from a US drawing, in decimals or fractions such as 1/4 or 1-1/2, and see the closest F1 catalog size of the same shape.

In millimeters

101.6 × 101.6 × 6.35 mm

Closest catalog size

SHS 100×100×6 · 3.5 kg/m

Depth -1.6%, width -1.6%, wall -5.5% against the inch size. Check the section properties before substituting.

A metric section of nearly the same size is not automatically equivalent: check it with the FRP profile calculator or the column calculator.

Msi to MPa conversion table

1 Msi is one million pounds per square inch (psi) and 1 ksi is one thousand. With 1 lbf = 4.4482216 N and 1 in = 25.4 mm exactly, 1 psi = 6,894.757 Pa, so 1 Msi = 6.894757 GPa = 6,894.757 MPa.

Frequently asked questions

How many MPa is 1 Msi?

1 Msi = 6,894.757 MPa, and 1 MPa = 0.000145038 Msi. Multiply a value in Msi by 6,894.757 to get MPa.

Which conversion factors are these?

The exact definitions 1 in = 25.4 mm and 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg, with standard gravity 9.80665 m/s² for pound-force, as listed in NIST Special Publication 811. The table rounds to four significant figures; use the converter above for full precision.

What modulus does pultruded FRP have in both units?

E23 lengthwise modulus: 3.336 Msi = 23,000 MPa; E17 lengthwise modulus: 2.466 Msi = 17,000 MPa; Structural steel: 29.01 Msi = 200,000 MPa. Values for F1 profiles are on the technical data page.
