Convert pressure, torque, viscosity, and 200+ engineering units
Access 200+ engineering unit conversions through a production-ready REST API. Pressure, torque, viscosity, temperature, and more.
Get the Unit Converter APIEngineering projects frequently require converting between different measurement systems. Whether you are working with metric (SI) or imperial units, process engineering specifications, or international standards, accurate unit conversion is critical. A wrong conversion factor can lead to costly manufacturing errors, failed inspections, or even safety incidents. This free engineering unit converter supports over 200 units across 14 categories commonly used in mechanical, chemical, civil, and manufacturing engineering.
Unlike generic unit converters, this tool is built specifically for engineering workflows. It includes niche units like torr, dyn, poise, and mil that general-purpose converters often omit. All conversions use IEEE-standard precision factors so you can trust the results for professional calculations.
