PSI Definition: PSI is a unit of pressure expressed in pounds of force per square inch of area. It stands for Pounds per Square Inch. 1 PSI = 6894 Pascals = 0.070 atmospheres = 51.715 torr. Up Next. Up Next.
Some of these derive from a unit of force divided by a unit of area; the SI unit of pressure, the pascal (Pa), for example, is one newton per square metre; similarly, the pound-force per square inch (psi) is the traditional unit of pressure in the imperial and US customary systems.he SI unit for pressure is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (N/m 2 or kgÂ·m â1 Â·s â2). This name for the unit was added in 1971; before that, pressure in SI was expressed simply in newtons per square metre. Other units of pressure, such as pounds per square inch and bar, are also in common use.
