are you incapable of using google? or using a converter?

and a well made piston of the correct size is usually batter than a sprinkler but i really depends on flow, pilot volume etc. of the piston valve.

Thinking because you have to and thinking because you want to are two different things.

Download Convert from here.
All the conversions you could ever want (well, almost all).

It'd take you what like 15 seconds in google.

I've been on holidays since 30 November but doesn't mean you can be lazy.

Anyway...

145psi = 10bar = 1Mpa = 1000Kpa = 1,000,000pa

Merry Christmas and don't even think about posting another stupid topic where you are too lazy to search.


Oh and for the piston > sprinkler valve question, you're just going to have to search. You've used up your one stupid question already and you have no idea how many times it has been answered.

Given we have loads of piston topics, it'll probably take you around 10minutes to find, have fun.

By the way, Google does have a converter built into its calculator.

You have to type out the word pascals though.

thanks a bunch for that much appreciated i shouldve search tho ohh well i blame it on being tired lol once again much appreciated the reason i wanted to know was that my little air compresser that goes into your cigeret lighter in your car only has kpa and i think bar and i wasnt sure what that was in psi it turns out i had it 131psi and the max ive had it is 100 ohh well least i no it can make it there not gonna push it to much higher tho even tho it could probably handle it.
