About Converting Gallon per Seconds to Pints per Millisecond
Gallon per Seconds and Pint per Millisecond both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
pints per millisecond = gallon per seconds × 0.008
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, and 1 pint per millisecond equals 0.473176473 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per seconds-to-pint per millisecond factor of 0.008.
Simple example
1 gal/s × 0.008 = 0.008 pt/ms
1 gallon per seconds = 0.008 pints per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 gal/s × 0.008 = 0.48 pt/ms
60 gallon per seconds = 0.48 pints per millisecond.

Reverse conversion: Pint per Millisecond to Gallon per Seconds
0.008 pt/ms × 125 = 1 gal/s
0.008 pints per millisecond = 1 gallon per seconds.
gallon per seconds = pints per millisecond × 125

Frequently asked questions
How many pints per millisecond are in 1 gallon per seconds?
1 gallon per seconds equals 0.008 pints per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert gallon per seconds to pint per millisecond?
Multiply the gallon per seconds value by 0.008. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert pint per millisecond back to gallon per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 pint per millisecond equals 125 gallon per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a pint per millisecond?
Pint per Millisecond (pt/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per seconds to pint per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per seconds and pint per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.008 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
