FAQ

What is the conversion factor from gal/lb (US) to in³/lb?
1 gal/lb (US) equals 231 in³/lb. To convert, multiply the value in US gallons per pound by 231.
How do I convert 1 gal/lb (US) to in³/lb?
1 gal/lb (US) = 231 in³/lb. For any value, multiply by 231.
How do I convert in³/lb back to gal/lb (US)?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.004329004. So 1 in³/lb = 0.004329 gal/lb (US).
When would I need to convert US gallon per pound to cubic inch per pound?
Specific-volume conversions between gal/lb (US) and in³/lb arise in steam-table lookups, compressible-flow analysis, and thermodynamic state-point work. Specific volume is the reciprocal of density and must not be confused with it — m³/kg and ft³/lb appear directly in property tables and equation-of-state solvers.
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).
