What does ounce per cubic inch measure?

It measures density as mass in ounces per unit volume in cubic inches, commonly used in U.S. customary or imperial contexts.

When should I use megagram per liter for density?

Megagram per liter is used for very large density values, mainly in astrophysics, planetary science, and high-pressure materials physics.

Is this conversion tool useful for everyday density measurements?

No, because megagram per liter is intended for extremely high densities, typical densities result in very small Mg/L values and are better expressed in other units.
