- Alternative Method – Division: If you prefer not to multiply, you can achieve the same conversion by dividing the gram-force per square meter value by 10000. This alternative method also gives you the correct pressure in centimeter of waters.
- Illustration of Division:
- cmH2O = gf/m² ÷ 10000
What is Pressure?
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to a surface per unit area: P = F / A. The SI unit is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (1 Pa = 1 N/m²). Practical applications use larger units: the bar (1 bar = 100,000 Pa, close to standard atmospheric pressure), atmosphere (atm) (1 atm = 101,325 Pa), and psi (pounds per square inch, used in the US for tire and gas pressures). Blood pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury), also called torr.
What is Gram-force per Square Meter?
The gram-force per square meter (symbol: gf/m²) is a non-SI unit of pressure representing the pressure exerted by one gram-force acting on an area of one square meter. It is used mainly in historical engineering references and educational examples, while SI units such as the pascal are preferred in modern practice. The unit is based on the gram-force.
One gram-force per square meter is equal to 0.00980665 pascal, 0.00000980665 kilopascal, 9.80665×10-8 bar, 0.00000142233 psi, and 9.67841×10-8 standard atmosphere. The unit is rarely used today outside specialized references.
What is Centimeter of water?
The centimeter of water (symbol: cmH₂O) is a non-SI unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of water under standard gravity. It is widely used in medical equipment, ventilation systems, HVAC engineering, and fluid mechanics because it provides a practical scale for measuring relatively low pressures. The unit is derived from the hydrostatic pressure of water and is described alongside other pressure units in the centimeter of water reference.
One centimeter of water is equal to 98.0665 pascals, 10 millimeters of water, 0.000980665 bar, 0.0142233 psi, and 0.000967841 standard atmosphere. The centimeter of water is commonly used whenever accurate measurement of low pressure is required.

Gram-force per Square Meter to Centimeter of water Examples
Example 1:
Convert 0.3 Gram-force per Square Meter pressure to Centimeter of water unit.
Solution:
We know that one Gram-force per Square Meter is equivalent to 0.0001 Centimeter of water.
Therefore,
0.3 gf/m² = 0.3 x 0.0001 cmH2O.
0.3 gf/m² = 0.00003 cmH2O.
Hence, 0.3 Gram-force per Square Meter is approximately equal to 0.00003 Centimeter of water.
Example 2:
Convert 4 Gram-force per Square Meter pressure to Centimeter of water unit.
