What is an inch water (4°C) [inAq] unit?

An inch water (4°C) represents the pressure from a 1-inch column of pure water at 4 °C under standard gravity, used mostly for measuring low pressures.

Why convert inch water (4°C) to ton-force (long)/square inch?

This conversion helps translate precise low-pressure readings into traditional British Imperial units that appear in legacy engineering documents and industrial equipment ratings.

Can I use ton-force (long)/square inch for low-pressure measurements directly?

No, because it is a large unit of pressure and not suitable for the fine low-pressure scales typical of inch water measurements.
