The meter of a head is a measure of pressure. Hydraulic head or piezometric head is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a geodetic datum. Head is expressed in units such as meters or feet. Kilogram Force per Square Centimeter (kg/cm2 or kgf/cm2) is a pressure unit that has been largely superseded by the SI unit system. It is the metric equivalent of pounds per square inch. Use this calculator to convert head in meter to pressure in kg/square cm based on the specific gravity.

Convert 5 heads to kg/cm2 pressure with Specific gravity of 10 kg/m3
p = (0.1 x h x SG)
= 0.1 x 5 x 10
= 5 kg/cm2
