What does ounce per cubic inch measure?

Ounce per cubic inch measures density by expressing mass in ounces per volume in cubic inches, commonly used in U.S. customary contexts.

Why convert ounce/cubic inch to milligram/cubic centimeter?

Converting to milligram per cubic centimeter helps standardize density values for scientific analysis and international engineering standards.

Does this conversion consider different types of ounces?

No, this conversion assumes the avoirdupois ounce typical in engineering, and does not account for other ounce types like troy.

Examples

Convert 2 oz/in^3: 2 × 1729.9940443869 = 3459.9880887738 mg/cm^3
Convert 0.5 oz/in^3: 0.5 × 1729.9940443869 = 864.99702219345 mg/cm^3

Common Use Cases

Defining densities of metals, plastics, and foams in U.S. engineering drawings.
Calculating part mass from volume and density in cubic inches.
Converting imperial density values to metric units for material selection.
Measuring volumetric bone mineral density in biomedical imaging.
Quality control of pharmaceutical powders based on bulk density.
Determining densities of polymer foams and aerogels in materials research.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure input density values are accurate to minimize conversion errors.
Use the defined conversion factor for precision rather than rough estimates.
Be aware that typical engineering values assume avoirdupois ounce definitions.
Check unit consistency when performing multi-step calculations involving volumes.

Limitations

Precision is important due to the large numerical conversion factor.
Density measurements must be accurate to prevent significant mass or volume errors.
Differences between ounce definitions (avoirdupois vs troy) are not addressed.
This tool assumes typical engineering use with avoirdupois ounces.
