What does grain per cubic foot measure?

It is a mass density unit measuring grains of mass per cubic foot of volume, commonly used for absolute humidity or airborne particulate concentrations.

Where is pound per gallon (UK) commonly used?

This unit often specifies densities of fuels, lubricants, and petroleum products in UK or Imperial engineering standards.

Can this tool convert densities for liquids and gases interchangeably?

While the tool converts units, users should understand that grain/cubic foot measures air particulates, and pound/gallon (UK) relates to liquid densities, so physical context matters.
