FAQ

What is the conversion factor from lb/gal to g/cm³?
1 lb/gal equals 0.1198264 g/cm³. To convert, multiply the value in pounds per US gallon by 0.1198264.
How do I convert 1 lb/gal to g/cm³?
1 lb/gal = 0.119826 g/cm³. For any value, multiply by 0.1198264.
How do I convert g/cm³ back to lb/gal?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 8.345404. So 1 g/cm³ = 8.3454 lb/gal.
When would I need to convert pound per US gallon to gram per cubic centimetre?
Density conversions are critical for fluid property datasheets, hydraulic head calculations, and reconciling lab measurements (often g/cm³) with process simulator inputs (kg/m³).
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
