What is millimeter water (4°C)?

It is a very small pressure unit defined by the hydrostatic pressure of a 1 mm water column at 4°C under standard gravity.

What does kip-force per square inch measure?

It represents high pressure as one kip-force (1,000 pounds-force) applied over one square inch area, often used in structural engineering.

Why convert from millimeter water (4°C) to kip-force/square inch?

To translate low hydrostatic pressure readings into units suitable for evaluating material strength and stresses in engineering.
