What does grain/gallon (UK) measure?

It expresses density as mass per volume, defined as one avoirdupois grain per imperial (UK) gallon, often used for water hardness.

Where is slug per cubic foot commonly used?

Slug per cubic foot is used in aerospace, naval, and fluid dynamics fields where US customary units are applied.

Why should I be careful using this conversion?

Because it involves converting between different measurement systems and density ranges, attention to unit consistency and precision is important.
