    Below is a comprehensive drill and tap size chart for all drills and taps: Inch, imperial, and metric, up to 36.5 millimetres (1.44 in) in diameter. In manufactured parts, holes with female screw threads are often needed; they accept male screws to facilitate the building and fastening of a finished assembly.

  3. Optical format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_format

    The optical format is approximately the diagonal length of the sensor multiplied by 3/2. The result is expressed in inches and is usually (but not always) rounded to a convenient fraction. For instance, a 6.4x4.8 mm sensor has a diagonal of 8.0 mm and therefore an optical format of 8.0*3/2 = 12 mm, which is expressed as 1 ⁄ 2 inch in imperial ...

    Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...

    A comparison of the A4 and Foolscap folio papersize. Foolscap folio, commonly contracted to foolscap or cap or folio and in short FC, is paper cut to the size of 8.5 × 13.5 in (216 × 343 mm) for printing or to 8 × 13 in (203 × 330 mm) for "normal" writing paper (foolscap). [1]

  6. Metric drill bit sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_sizes

    For Morse taper-shank drill bits, the standard continues in 1/64 inch increments up to 1¾ inch, then 1/32 inch increments up to 2¼ inch, 1/16 inch increments up to 3 inches, 1/8 inch increments up to 3¼ inches, and a single 1/4 inch increment to 3½ inches. One aspect of this method of sizing is that the size increment between drill bits ...

    The alternative Super series, denoted SnR, nR Plus or nR+, has an aspect ratio of 32 (or as close as possible) and thus provides a better fit for standard 135 film (35 mm) at sizes of 8 inches or above. 5R is twice the size of a 2R print, 6R twice the size of a 4R print and S8R twice the size of 6R. 4D/6D is a newer size for most consumer ...

  8. Point (typography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(typography)

    The French National Print Office adopted a point of 2 ⁄ 5 mm or 0.400 mm in about 1810 and continues to use this measurement today (though "recalibrated" to 0.398 77 mm). [ 21 ] [ 22 ] [ 23 ] Japanese [ 24 ] and German [ 9 ] [ 16 ] [ 18 ] standardization bodies instead opted for a metric typographic base measure of exactly 1 ⁄ 4 mm or 0.250 ...

    [2] [3] [4] The factor–label method is the sequential application of conversion factors expressed as fractions and arranged so that any dimensional unit appearing in both the numerator and denominator of any of the fractions can be cancelled out until only the desired set of dimensional units is obtained.
