Conversion Formula
The formula for converting cubic inches (ci) to cubic centimeters (cc) is:
cc = ci × 16.3871
This works because one inch equals 2.54 centimeters. Since volume is cubic, you cube the linear conversion: (2.54 cm)³ = 16.3871 cc per ci.
Example calculation:
- Start with 1 ci
- Multiply by 16.3871: 1 × 16.3871 = 16.3871 cc
- Result: 1 ci is 16.3871 cc
Conversion Example
Convert 5 ci to cc:
- Multiply 5 ci by 16.3871 to get cc
- 5 × 16.3871 = 81.9355 cc
- Therefore, 5 ci equals 81.9355 cc
Convert 0.25 ci to cc:
- Multiply 0.25 by 16.3871
- 0.25 × 16.3871 = 4.096775 cc
- So 0.25 ci equals approximately 4.0968 cc
Convert 12.5 ci to cc:
- Multiply 12.5 by 16.3871
- 12.5 × 16.3871 = 204.83875 cc
- That means 12.5 ci equals 204.8388 cc

Conversion Definitions
ci (cubic inch): A cubic inch is a unit of volume in the Imperial and US customary systems. It represents the volume of a cube with sides of one inch in length. It is used in measuring small volumes, especially in engineering and manufacturing contexts.
cc (cubic centimeter): A cubic centimeter is a metric unit of volume, equal to the volume of a cube with edges one centimeter long. It is widely used in science, medicine, and automotive industries to measure liquid volumes and engine displacements. Exactly equivalent to one milliliter.
Conversion FAQs
Can I convert negative ci values to cc?
Yes, negative cubic inch values can be converted to cubic centimeters by multiplying with the same factor 16.3871. Negative volume is not physically meaningful but mathematically the conversion works same way without restrictions.
Why is 1 ci equal to 16.3871 cc and not a round number?
The inch and centimeter measure different systems with different base lengths. Since 1 inch = 2.54 cm exactly, volume conversion requires cubing this length, producing 2.54³ = 16.387064, which rounds to 16.3871. The cubic relationship explains the non-round factor.
Is cc larger or smaller than ci?
One cubic inch is larger than one cubic centimeter. Since 1 ci equals about 16.3871 cc, cc is smaller unit. So you need many cc to equal one ci, reflecting the smaller size of centimeter compared to inch.
What happens if I enter a decimal value in the ci to cc converter?
The converter calculates the result by multiplying the decimal input by 16.3871, showing a precise result to four decimal places. Decimal inputs like 0.5 ci or 2.75 ci convert correctly with no issues.
Is the conversion factor ever change or approximate?
The factor 16.3871 is exact based on the international inch definition as 2.54 cm exactly. It does not change, so conversion between ci and cc is always consistent and reliable for calculations.
