  2. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(mechanical)

    An automotive belt with the number "740K6" or "6K740" indicates a belt 74 inches (190 cm) in length, 6 ribs wide, with a rib pitch of 9 ⁄ 64 of an inch (3.6 mm) (a standard thickness for a K series automotive belt would be 4.5mm). A metric equivalent would be usually indicated by "6PK1880" whereby 6 refers to the number of ribs, PK refers to ...

  3. Gear inches - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_inches

    For example, consider a 700c × 23 mm tire, which has a nominal cross-section of 23 mm. 700c wheels have a rim diameter of 622 mm. Hence the wheel diameter is (2 × 23 mm) + 622 mm = 668 mm which is equal to 26.3 inches (rounded to 1 decimal place). 26 inch mountain bicycle wheels have a rim diameter of 559 mm. This ignores factors that ...

  4. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    Thus, the outer diameter of a catheter in millimeters can be calculated by dividing the French size by 3. [2] For example, a catheter with a French size of 9 would have an outer diameter of approximately 3 mm. While the French scale aligns closely with the metric system, it introduces redundancy and the potential for rounding errors.

    2.326 Mmdiameter of the dwarf planet Eris, the largest trans-Neptunian object found to date; 2.376 Mmdiameter of Pluto; 2.707 Mmdiameter of Triton, largest moon of Neptune; 3.122 Mmdiameter of Europa, the smallest Galilean satellite of Jupiter; 3.476 Mmdiameter of Earth's Moon; 3.643 Mmdiameter of Io, a moon of Jupiter

  6. Toothed belt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toothed_belt

    A toothed belt, timing belt, cogged belt, cog belt, or synchronous belt is a flexible belt with teeth moulded onto its inner surface. Toothed belts are usually designed to run over matching toothed pulleys or sprockets. Toothed belts are used in a wide array of mechanical devices where high power transmission is desired.

  7. Belt problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_problem

    The belt problem is a mathematics problem which requires finding the length of a crossed belt that connects two circular pulleys with radius r 1 and r 2 whose centers are separated by a distance P. The solution of the belt problem requires trigonometry and the concepts of the bitangent line , the vertical angle , and congruent angles .

  8. Ring size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_size

    In the United States, Canada, and Mexico, ring sizes are specified using a numerical scale with 1 ⁄ 4 steps, where whole sizes differ by 0.032 inches (0.81 mm) of internal diameter, equivalent to 0.1005 inches (2.55 mm) of internal circumference.

  9. List of metric units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metric_units

    Metric units are units based on the metre, gram or second and decimal (power of ten) multiples or sub-multiples of these. According to Schadow and McDonald, [ 1 ] metric units, in general, are those units "defined 'in the spirit' of the metric system, that emerged in late 18th century France and was rapidly adopted by scientists and engineers.
