What does grain/gallon (UK) measure?

It measures density as mass in avoirdupois grains per imperial gallon, commonly used for expressing water hardness or dissolved solids in UK water systems.

In what contexts is ounce per cubic inch used?

Ounce per cubic inch is a density unit often used in U.S. engineering and manufacturing to define the mass of materials like metals and plastics per cubic inch volume.

Why convert grain/gallon (UK) to ounce/cubic inch?

Conversion facilitates consistent density calculations when comparing UK water-related measurements with U.S. engineering or manufacturing standards that use oz/in^3.
