About Converting Carats per Teaspoon to Grains per Pint
Carat per Teaspoon and Grain per Pint both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
grains per pint = carats per teaspoon × 296.301280376
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per teaspoon equals 40.5768272422 base units, and 1 grain per pint equals 0.136944488362 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per teaspoon-to-grain per pint factor of 296.301280376.
Simple example
1 ct/tsp × 296.3012804 = 296.3012804 gr/pt
1 carat per teaspoon = 296.3012804 grains per pint.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/tsp × 296.3012804 = 296,301.2804 gr/pt
1,000 carats per teaspoon = 296,301.2804 grains per pint.

How do I convert grain per pint back to carat per teaspoon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 grain per pint equals 0.0033749432 carats per teaspoon. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a carat per teaspoon?
Carat per Teaspoon (ct/tsp) is a unit of density.
What is a grain per pint?
Grain per Pint (gr/pt) is a unit of density.
Is the carat per teaspoon to grain per pint conversion exact?
Yes. Both carat per teaspoon and grain per pint are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 296.3012804 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
