FAQ

What is the conversion factor from gal/lb (US) to m³/kg?
1 gal/lb (US) equals 0.008345404 m³/kg. To convert, multiply the value in US gallons per pound by 0.008345404.
How do I convert 1 gal/lb (US) to m³/kg?
1 gal/lb (US) = 0.0083454 m³/kg. For any value, multiply by 0.008345404.
How do I convert m³/kg back to gal/lb (US)?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 119.8264. So 1 m³/kg = 119.826 gal/lb (US).
When would I need to convert US gallon per pound to cubic metre per kilogram?
Specific-volume conversions between gal/lb (US) and m³/kg 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).
