    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scale_model_sizes

    Works with 15 mm miniatures where a 6 foot man would equal 15.24 mm 1:110: 2.771 mm Used for some model ships, aircraft and diecast cars. 1:108: 2.822 mm An historic size for ships, also used for rockets and spacecraft. 15 mm figure scale for wargaming is considered interchangeable with this scale. [9] 1:100: 3.048 mm

  3. 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 ]

  4. Millimetre - Wikipedia

    Different lengths as in respect to the electromagnetic spectrum, measured by the metre and its derived scales.The microwave is between 1 meter to 1 millimeter.. The millimetre (international spelling; SI unit symbol mm) or millimeter (American spelling) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one thousandth of a metre, which is the SI base unit of length.

    For instance the same angle of 0.1 mrad will subtend 10 mm at 100 meters, 20 mm at 200 meters, etc., or similarly 0.39 inches at 100 m, 0.78 inches at 200 m, etc. Subtensions in mrad based optics are particularly useful together with target sizes and shooting distances in metric units. The most common scope adjustment increment in mrad based ...

    Calibers fall into four general categories by size: [citation needed] miniature-bore historically refers to calibers with a diameter of 0.22 inches (5.6 mm) or smaller; small-bore refers to calibers with a diameter of 0.32 inches (8.1 mm) or smaller; medium-bore refers to calibers with a diameter of 0.33 inches (8.4 mm) to 0.39 inches (9.9 mm)

  7. Thousandth of an inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousandth_of_an_inch

    A thousandth of an inch is a derived unit of length in a system of units using inches.Equal to 1 ⁄ 1000 of an inch, a thousandth is commonly called a thou / ˈ θ aʊ / (used for both singular and plural) or, particularly in North America, a mil (plural mils).

    The United States adopted the conversion factor 1 metre = 39.37 inches by an act in 1866. [30] In 1893, Mendenhall ordered the physical realization of the inch to be based on the international prototype metres numbers 21 and 27, which had been received from the CGPM, together with the previously adopted conversion factor. [31]

  9. Circular mil - Wikipedia

    7.854 × 10 −7 square inches (1 square inch is about 1.273 million circular mils) 5.067 × 10 −10 square metres; 5.067 × 10 −4 square millimetres; 506.7 μm 2; 1000 circular mils = 1 MCM or 1 kcmil, and is (approximately) equal to: 0.5067 mm 2, so 2 kcmil ≈ 1 mm 2 (a 1.3% error)
