About these units
Pint (UK) (pt (UK))
The UK pint, defined as 568.261 mL, is famous for its role in British pub culture. Beer and cider are traditionally served in pints, and the unit remains legally protected in pubs to this day. The pint is also used for milk and other daily-use liquids in the UK, maintaining its relevance even after metrication. Its larger size compared to the US pint (473 mL) is often a point of international curiosity. More than a measurement, the pint represents a cultural icon deeply woven into British identity and tradition.
Kiloliter (kL)
A kiloliter equals 1,000 liters, identical to 1 cubic meter, and is used in water management, municipal planning, agriculture, and commercial storage. Utility companies measure household water usage in kiloliters. Irrigation requirements, swimming pool volumes, and cistern capacities are also commonly expressed in this unit. Its equivalence to the cubic meter gives it flexibility—metric engineers may prefer m³, while public-facing documentation may use kL for clarity.
