About the units
- Kilogram per cubic meter
- The SI unit of density: one kilogram of mass in one cubic meter. Water is close to 1000 kg/m³.
- Slug per cubic foot
- The density unit of the British engineering system, used in fluid and aerospace calculations, about 515.379 kg/m³.
Limits and caveats
- Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
- Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.
Questions about this tool
How many slugs per cubic foot are in one kilogram per cubic meter?
1 kg/m³ = 0.00194032 slug/ft³ exactly.
How do I convert kilograms per cubic meter to slugs per cubic foot?
Use slug/ft³ = kg/m³ × 0.001940320332. For example, 25 kg/m³ = 0.048508 slug/ft³.
How many kilograms per cubic meter are in one slug per cubic foot?
