What this tool does
Material datasheets quote density in whatever unit the industry prefers: metals in g/cm³, concrete in kg/m³ or t/m³, American specifications in lb/ft³. The metric ones are deceptively close together — 1 g/cm³ is 1000 kg/m³, and both equal 1 kg/L — which makes it easy to be out by a factor of a thousand. Water at 4 °C is the reference point: 1000 kg/m³.

Limitations
- Density changes with temperature, moisture and composition. Use a value from the supplier's data sheet whenever precision matters.
- The calculation runs at full precision and only the display is rounded. If you copy an intermediate value and retype it, small differences can appear.
