A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Enter a finite, non-negative value.
  2. Choose its dynamic viscosity unit.
  3. Review equivalents across all supported units.

Supported dynamic viscosity units

Pa·s is the base. 1 cP = 0.001 Pa·s; 1 P = 0.1 Pa·s; 1 lbf·s/ft² = 47.88026 Pa·s; 1 reyn (lbf·s/in²) = 6,894.757 Pa·s.

Dynamic versus kinematic

This tool converts dynamic (absolute) viscosity only. Kinematic viscosity, such as cSt or m²/s, requires fluid density and is not included.

Precision and local processing

Values use the stated conversion factors and are displayed to about 10 significant digits. Calculation stays in your browser.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Does this convert kinematic viscosity?

No. cSt and m²/s are kinematic units and require density.

What is a reyn?

A reyn is lbf·s/in², a dynamic viscosity unit.

Are the results exact?

Results follow the listed reference factors and are formatted to about 10 significant digits.
