What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms volume measures from cubic millimeters, a unit for very small volumes, into US pints, which are commonly used in everyday liquid measurements.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the volume value in cubic millimeters you wish to convert.
-
Select cubic millimeter as the input unit and US pint as the output unit.
-
Click the convert button to see the equivalent volume in pints (US).
Key Features
-
Converts cubic millimeter (mm³) values to US liquid pints (pt (US)) accurately.
-
Browser-based and easy to use without specialized software.
-
Supports volume measurements relevant for microfluidics, biology, and culinary applications.
Examples
-
1,000,000 cubic millimeters equals approximately 2.1134 pints (US).
-
500 cubic millimeters equals about 0.0010567 pints (US).
Common Use Cases
-
Converting very small scientific volume measurements to everyday liquid units.
-
Scaling microfluidic or biological sample volumes into US pints for practical use.
-
Translating precise engineering volume measurements for culinary or retail packaging contexts.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Always confirm that you are using the liquid US pint, not the dry pint, for accurate results.
-
Use this conversion tool when dealing with very small volumes needing clear expression in common liquid units.
-
Be mindful that final converted volumes may be fractional and require appropriate handling.
Limitations
-
The cubic millimeter is a very small unit, so conversion results in small fraction values that might be hard to interpret without precision.
-
This tool uses the US liquid pint definition; it does not support US dry pint conversions.
-
Temperature and density effects are not included in this volume conversion.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What volume does one cubic millimeter represent?
-
One cubic millimeter is the volume of a cube with sides 1 millimeter in length and equals 1 × 10^-9 cubic meters.
-
What is the exact volume of a US liquid pint?
-
A US liquid pint equals exactly 473.176473 milliliters, which is 1/8 of a US gallon.
-
Can this converter be used for US dry pints?
-
No, this tool converts to US liquid pints only; US dry pint measurements differ and are not supported here.
Key Terminology
-
Cubic millimeter (mm³)
-
A measure of volume equal to the space inside a cube with 1 millimeter on each side.
-
US pint (pt US)
-
A customary US liquid volume unit equal to 1/8 of a US gallon or exactly 473.176473 milliliters.
