About Converting Metric tons per Imperial gallon to Metric tons per Cubic yard
Metric ton per Imperial gallon and Metric ton per Cubic yard 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 cubic yard = metric tons per imperial gallon × 168.178557394
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 metric ton per imperial gallon equals 219969.248299 base units, and 1 metric ton per cubic yard equals 1307.95061931 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct metric ton per imperial gallon-to-metric ton per cubic yard factor of 168.178557394.
Simple example
1 t/imp gal × 168.1785574 = 168.1785574 t/yd3
1 metric ton per imperial gallon = 168.1785574 metric tons per cubic yard.
Real-world example
1,000 t/imp gal × 168.1785574 = 168,178.5574 t/yd3
1,000 metric tons per imperial gallon = 168,178.5574 metric tons per cubic yard.

Frequently asked questions
How many metric tons per cubic yard are in 1 metric ton per imperial gallon?
1 metric ton per imperial gallon equals 168.1785574 metric tons per cubic yard, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert metric ton per imperial gallon to metric ton per cubic yard?
Multiply the metric ton per imperial gallon value by 168.1785574. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert metric ton per cubic yard back to metric ton per imperial gallon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 metric ton per cubic yard equals 0.0059460612 metric tons per imperial gallon. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a metric ton per imperial gallon?
Metric ton per Imperial gallon (t/imp gal) is a unit of density.
What is a metric ton per cubic yard?
Metric ton per Cubic yard (t/yd3) is a unit of density.
Is the metric ton per imperial gallon to metric ton per cubic yard conversion exact?
Yes. Both metric ton per imperial gallon and metric ton per cubic yard are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 168.1785574 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.
