What is an ounce (oz)?

An ounce (oz) is a customary unit of mass commonly defined as exactly 28.349523125 grams for the avoirdupois variant, used in cooking, packaging, and postal measurements.

What does pound-force square second per foot measure?

It is a mass unit in the imperial system equal to the mass that accelerates at 1 ft/s² under a force of 1 pound-force, often called a slug, used in mechanical and engineering calculations.

Can I use this converter for precious metals?

No, this converter uses the avoirdupois ounce; precious metals use the troy ounce variant, which differs in mass.
