| 64 | Pound per square inch - Gauge | Psig (pound-force per square inch gauge) is a unit of pressure relative to the surrounding atmosphere.

If a pressure gauge is calibrated to read zero in space, then at sea level on Earth it would read 14.7 psi. Thus a reading of 30 psig, on Earth, on a tire gauge represents an absolute pressure of 44.7 psi
(lb/in²). | |
