About Converting Grains per Pint to Drams per Cubic Centimeter
Grain per Pint and Dram per Cubic Centimeter 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
drams per cubic centimeter = grains per pint × 0.0000772891947471
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 grain per pint equals 0.136944488362 base units, and 1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 1771.84519531 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct grain per pint-to-dram per cubic centimeter factor of 0.0000772891947471.
Simple example
1 gr/pt × 0.00007728919475 = 0.0000772892 dr/cm3
1 grain per pint = 0.0000772892 drams per cubic centimeter.
Real-world example
1,000 gr/pt × 0.00007728919475 = 0.0772891948 dr/cm3
1,000 grains per pint = 0.0772891948 drams per cubic centimeter.

Frequently asked questions
How many drams per cubic centimeter are in 1 grain per pint?
1 grain per pint equals 0.0000772892 drams per cubic centimeter, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert grain per pint to dram per cubic centimeter?
Multiply the grain per pint value by 0.00007728919475. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert dram per cubic centimeter back to grain per pint?
Use the reverse factor: 1 dram per cubic centimeter equals 12,938.41918 grains per pint. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a grain per pint?
Grain per Pint (gr/pt) is a unit of density.
What is a dram per cubic centimeter?
Dram per Cubic Centimeter (dr/cm3) is a unit of density.
Is the grain per pint to dram per cubic centimeter conversion exact?
Yes. Both grain per pint and dram per cubic centimeter are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00007728919475 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.
