2. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

   A tire-pressure gauge displaying bar (outside) and psi (inside) Since tires are rated for specific loads at certain pressure, it is important to keep the pressure of the tire at the optimal amount. The precision of a typical mechanical gauge as shown is ±3 psi (21 kPa). Higher precision gauges with ±1 psi (6.9 kPa) uncertainty can also be ...

3. Orders of magnitude (pressure) - Wikipedia

   150 to > 550 kPa: 25 to > 80 psi Impact pressure of a fist punch (approximate) [citation needed] [56] +180 to +250 kPa +26 to +36 psi Air pressure in an automobile tire relative to atmosphere (gauge pressure) [citation needed] +210 to +900 kPa +30 to +130 psi Air pressure in a bicycle tire relative to atmosphere (gauge pressure) [57] 300 kPa 50 psi

4. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

   A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

5. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit)

   The pascal (Pa) or kilopascal (kPa) as a unit of pressure measurement is widely used throughout the world and has largely replaced the pounds per square inch (psi) unit, except in some countries that still use the imperial measurement system or the US customary system, including the United States.

6. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

   Tire pressure and blood pressure are gauge pressures by convention, while atmospheric pressures, deep vacuum pressures, and altimeter pressures must be absolute. For most working fluids where a fluid exists in a closed system, gauge pressure measurement prevails. Pressure instruments connected to the system will indicate pressures relative to ...

7. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

   For example, a bicycle tire pumped up to 65 psig in a local atmospheric pressure at sea level (14.7 psi) will have a pressure of 79.7 psia (14.7 psi + 65 psi). [ 2 ] [ 3 ] When gauge pressure is referenced to something other than ambient atmospheric pressure, then the unit is pound per square inch differential ( psid ).
