About Converting Pound per Cubic inches to Stones per Milliliter
Pound per Cubic inch and Stone per Milliliter 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. Pound per Cubic inch is most often used for used in machining and materials engineering, particularly for describing the density of metals, where a smaller volume unit than the cubic foot gives a more convenient figure.
Formula
stones per milliliter = pound per cubic inches × 0.00435883886391
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 pound per cubic inch equals 27679.9047102 base units, and 1 stone per milliliter equals 6350293.18 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct pound per cubic inch-to-stone per milliliter factor of 0.00435883886391.
Simple example
1 lb/in3 × 0.004358838864 = 0.0043588389 st/mL
1 pound per cubic inch = 0.0043588389 stones per milliliter.
Real-world example
1,000 lb/in3 × 0.004358838864 = 4.358838864 st/mL
1,000 pound per cubic inches = 4.358838864 stones per milliliter.

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.
