Pascal-seconds to centipoise
Type a value in Pa·s to get it in cP instantly.
1,000,000cP
That's 20× as thick as ketchup, while tar is 30× thicker. That is about 1,000,000× as thick as water.
Convert the other way: cP to Pa·s
What it means
How thick is that?
This is dynamic viscosity. Kinematic viscosity (cSt) divides by density and is a different quantity.
The math
How to convert Pa·s to cP
To convert pascal-seconds to centipoise, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 1,000 Pa·s × 1,000 = 1,000,000 cP.
In the other direction, 1 cP = 0.001 Pa·s.

The units
About these units
Pascal-seconds (Pa·s)
The SI unit of dynamic viscosity. Water is 0.001 Pa·s.
Centipoise (cP)
A hundredth of a poise, the industry standard. Water is 1 cP by happy accident.
