  2. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The millimetre (SI symbol: mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −3 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 ⁠ m = 0.001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm). 1.0 mm – 1/1,000 of a meter; 1.0 mm – 0.03937 inches or 5/127 (exactly)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6.8mm_Remington_SPC

    The 6.8mm Remington Special Purpose Cartridge (6.8 SPC, 6.8 SPC II or 6.8×43mm) is a rimless bottlenecked intermediate rifle cartridge that was developed by Remington Arms in collaboration with members of the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit and United States Special Operations Command [6] to possibly replace the 5.56 NATO cartridge in short barreled rifles (SBR) and carbines.

  4. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    The French scale measures and is proportional to the outer diameter of a catheter, with 1 French (Fr) defined as 1 ⁄ 3 millimeter, making the relationship: 1 mm = 3 Fr. Thus, the outer diameter of a catheter in millimeters can be calculated by dividing the French size by 3. [ 2 ]

  5. List of disk drive form factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_disk_drive_form...

    4 in × 1 in × 5 + 3 ⁄ 4 in (102 mm × 25 mm × 146 mm) = 377 cm 3. This smaller form factor is similar to that used in an HDD by Rodime in 1983, which was the same size as the "half height" 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (89 mm) FDD, i.e., 1.63 inches (41 mm) high. Today, the 1-inch high ("one-third height", "slimline", or "low-profile") version of this ...

  6. Paper size - Wikipedia

    ±1 mm (0.039 in) for dimensions up to 150 mm (5.9 in), ±1.5 mm (0.059 in) for lengths in the range 150 to 600 mm (5.9 to 23.6 in) and; ±2 mm (0.079 in) for any dimension above 600 mm (24 in). There used to be a standard, DIN 198, that was just a table of recommended A series formats for a number of business applications.

  7. 5 mm caliber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_mm_caliber

    This is a list of firearm cartridges which have bullets in the 5.00 to 5.99 mm (0.197 to 0.236 in) caliber range. Length refers to the cartridge case length. OAL refers to the overall length of the cartridge. All measurements are in mm (in).

  8. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    For example, a 10 cm (3.9 in) circular would have a maximum precision approximately equal to a 31.4 cm (12.4 in) ordinary slide rule. Circular slide rules also eliminate "off-scale" calculations, because the scales were designed to "wrap around"; they never have to be reoriented when results are near 1.0—the rule is always on scale.

  9. Units of textile measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_textile_measurement

    Mommes (mm), traditionally used to measure silk fabrics, the weight in pounds of a piece of fabric if it were sized 45 inches by 100 yards (1.2 m by 90 m). One momme = 4.340 g/m 2; 8 mommes is approximately 1 ounce per square yard or 35 g/m 2.
