Density Converter

Comprehensive Density Converter

Density is a fundamental property used in science, engineering, and everyday applications to measure how much mass is contained within a given volume. Our Density Converter tool allows you to quickly and accurately convert between a wide range of density units. Using kilogram per cubic meter [kg/m³] as the base unit, you can easily translate measurements into units such as gram per cubic centimeter, pound per cubic inch, and many more.

What Units Are Covered?

Our converter supports an extensive list of density units with conversion factors relative to 1 kg/m³:

• Metric Units:

  • Kilogram/cubic meter [kg/m³] – The SI base unit.

  • Gram/cubic centimeter – 1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³.

  • Kilogram/cubic centimeter – 1 kg/cm³ = 1,000,000 kg/m³.

  • Gram/cubic meter [g/m³] – 1 g/m³ = 0.001 kg/m³.

  • Gram/cubic millimeter – 1 g/mm³ = 1,000,000 kg/m³.

• Subdivisions by Mass per Liter:

  • Units expressed as per liter such as Exagram/liter, Petagram/liter, Teragram/liter, Gigagram/liter, Megagram/liter, Kilogram/liter, Hectogram/liter, Dekagram/liter, Gram/liter, Decigram/liter, Centigram/liter, Milligram/liter, Microgram/liter, Nanogram/liter, Picogram/liter, Femtogram/liter, Attogram/liter.

• Imperial and Other Units:

  • Pound/cubic inch [lb/in³], Pound/cubic foot [lb/ft³], Pound/cubic yard [lb/yd³].

  • Pound/gallon (US) and Pound/gallon (UK).

  • Ounce/cubic inch [oz/in³], Ounce/cubic foot [oz/ft³], Ounce/gallon (US), Ounce/gallon (UK).

  • Grain/gallon (US), Grain/gallon (UK), and Grain/cubic foot [gr/ft³].

  • Ton (short)/cubic yard, Ton (long)/cubic yard, Slug/cubic foot [slug/ft³].

  • Psi/1000 feet.

  • Earth’s density (mean) – Approximately 5518 kg/m³.

How Does It Work?

Our Density Converter follows a two-step process:

1. Convert to the Base Unit:
   The input density is converted to kilograms per cubic meter using the selected “From” unit’s conversion factor.

2. Convert to the Target Unit:
   The result is then converted into the chosen “To” unit using its conversion factor.

This ensures precise and consistent density conversions for all your applications.
