About Converting Drams per Liter to Imperial hundredweights per Gallon
Dram per Liter and Imperial hundredweight per Gallon 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
imperial hundredweights per gallon = drams per liter × 0.000132024685547
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 dram per liter equals 1.77184519531 base units, and 1 imperial hundredweight per gallon equals 13420.5598595 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct dram per liter-to-imperial hundredweight per gallon factor of 0.000132024685547.
Simple example
1 dr/L × 0.0001320246855 = 0.0001320247 long cwt/gal
1 dram per liter = 0.0001320247 imperial hundredweights per gallon.

What is a dram per liter?
Dram per Liter (dr/L) is a unit of density.
What is a imperial hundredweight per gallon?
Imperial hundredweight per Gallon (long cwt/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the dram per liter to imperial hundredweight per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both dram per liter and imperial hundredweight per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.0001320246855 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.
