What does grain per gallon (UK) measure?

It measures density as the mass of one avoirdupois grain per imperial gallon, commonly used to express water hardness or dissolved solids.

Where is gigagram per liter (Gg/L) used?

Gigagram per liter (Gg/L) is primarily used in astrophysics and high-pressure physics to describe extremely high densities of matter.

Can I use this converter for everyday density conversions?

While it converts between these units, the grain/gallon (UK) and gigagram/liter cover very different density ranges, so practical use outside specific contexts is limited.
