Metric Ton-force per Square Inch Unit | All you need to know

The ton-force per square inch (symbol: tf/in²) is a non-SI unit of pressure that represents the pressure exerted by one metric ton-force acting on an area of one square inch. It is an extremely large pressure unit used primarily in heavy engineering, material testing, hydraulic systems, and industrial applications where very high pressures are involved. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, ton-force per square inch is still found in some engineering references. It is related to the ton-force.

One ton-force per square inch is equal to 15201054.0982 pascals, 15.201054098 megapascals, 152.010540982 bars, 2,204.62 pounds per square inch, and 155.031 kilogram-force per square centimetre. The ton-force per square inch is mainly used in specialized engineering calculations and high-pressure industrial applications.
