How to convert kilohertz to revolutions per minute

Multiply the number of kilohertz by 60,000 to get revolutions per minute: rpm = kHz × 60,000.

Example: 5 kHz = 300,000 rpm.

The kilohertz (kHz) and the revolution per minute (rpm) are both units of frequency. Need the opposite direction? Use the rpm to kHz converter.

Metric and imperial units

The metric system (SI) is used by almost every country and by science worldwide. Its units scale by powers of ten – 1 kilometer is 1,000 meters, 1 meter is 100 centimeters – which makes conversions inside the system easy. The imperial and US customary systems (inches, feet, pounds, gallons) are still used daily in the United States and partly in the UK.

Since 1959 the inch has been defined as exactly 2.54 centimeters and the pound as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms, so conversions between the two systems are exact. Note that a US gallon (3.785 L) and an imperial gallon (4.546 L) are different – choose the right one above.

This converter covers 18 categories and 106 units: length, weight, temperature, volume, area, speed, time, data, energy, pressure, power, angle, force, torque, frequency, flow rate, illuminance, density.

Frequently asked questions

How many revolutions per minute are in a kilohertz?

1 kilohertz = 60,000 revolutions per minute.

How do I convert kilohertz to revolutions per minute?

Use the formula rpm = kHz × 60,000. For example, 5 kHz = 300,000 rpm.

How do I convert revolutions per minute back to kilohertz?

1 revolution per minute = 0.0000166667 kilohertz. Use the rpm to kHz converter linked on this page.

Are these conversions exact?

Yes – all factors use the internationally defined values (for example 1 inch = 2.54 cm exactly, 1 pound = 0.45359237 kg exactly). Results are rounded to 8 significant digits for display.
