About Converting Metric tons per Cubic foot to Metric tons per Imperial gallon
Metric ton per Cubic foot and Metric ton per Imperial 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
metric tons per imperial gallon = metric tons per cubic foot × 0.160543653236
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 metric ton per cubic foot equals 35314.6667215 base units, and 1 metric ton per imperial gallon equals 219969.248299 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct metric ton per cubic foot-to-metric ton per imperial gallon factor of 0.160543653236.
Simple example
1 t/ft3 × 0.1605436532 = 0.1605436532 t/imp gal
1 metric ton per cubic foot = 0.1605436532 metric tons per imperial gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 t/ft3 × 0.1605436532 = 160.5436532 t/imp gal
1,000 metric tons per cubic foot = 160.5436532 metric tons per imperial gallon.

Frequently asked questions
How many metric tons per imperial gallon are in 1 metric ton per cubic foot?
1 metric ton per cubic foot equals 0.1605436532 metric tons per imperial gallon, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert metric ton per cubic foot to metric ton per imperial gallon?
Multiply the metric ton per cubic foot value by 0.1605436532. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert metric ton per imperial gallon back to metric ton per cubic foot?
Use the reverse factor: 1 metric ton per imperial gallon equals 6.228835459 metric tons per cubic foot. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a metric ton per cubic foot?
Metric ton per Cubic foot (t/ft3) is a unit of density.
What is a metric ton per imperial gallon?
Metric ton per Imperial gallon (t/imp gal) is a unit of density.
Is the metric ton per cubic foot to metric ton per imperial gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both metric ton per cubic foot and metric ton per imperial gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.1605436532 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.
