The simple answer is "NO".

This question is asked every so often and people get frustrated because there is no conversion scale, but that's the way it is.

As Ron says, there is no simple conversion to use but there is one thing.

50,000 CUP indicates a higher pressure than 50,000 PSI so don't confuse the two. Don
