Kilogram Per Square Centimeter (kg/cm²) is a unit in the category of Surface density. It is also known as kilogram/square centimeter. Kilogram Per Square Centimeter (kg/cm²) has a dimension of ML^-2 where M is mass, and L is length. It can be converted to the corresponding standard SI unit kg/m² by multiplying its value by a factor of 10000.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).

Other units in the category of Surface density include Gram Per Square Centimeter (g/cm²), Kilogram Per Square Meter (kg/m²), Microgram Per Square Millimeter (µg/mm²), Ounce Mass Per Square Inch (ozm/in²), Pound Mass Per Square Foot (lbm/ft²), and Pound Mass Per Square Inch (lbm/in²).
