  2. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    The Charrière is measured by the ''outer'' diameter, and is defined as 1 Fr = 1/3 mm, and thus 1 mm = 3 Fr; therefore the diameter of a round catheter in millimetres can be determined by dividing the French size by 3. [2] The French units roughly correspond to the outer circumference of the catheter (see table below).

    A 12-gauge shotgun, nominally 18.5 mm (0.73 in), can range from a tight 18 mm (0.71 in) to an extreme overbore of 20 mm (0.79 in). Some also claim an increased velocity with the overbored barrels, up to 15 m/s (49 ft/s), which is due to the larger swept volume of the overbored barrel.

  5. Drill bit sizes - Wikipedia

    Metric drill bit sizes. Metric drill set, 1.0–6.0 mm by 0.1 mm, jobber length. The case that holds them in an indexed order (by size), via a graduated series of holes, is called a drill index. Metric drill bit sizes define the diameter of the bit in terms of standard metric lengths. Standards organizations define sets of sizes that are ...

  6. Wrench size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrench_size

    Sizes that may interchange, depending on the precision needed, include 2 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 64 inch (1.98 mm)), 4 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 32 inch (3.97 mm)) and 8 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 16 inch (7.94 mm)). In reality, a wrench with a width across the flats of exactly 15 mm would fit too tightly to use on a bolt with a width across the flats of 15 mm.
