  2. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

    The French scale measures the outer diameter of the catheter, not the size of the internal drainage channel (inner diameter). For instance, a two-way catheter of 20 Fr and a three-way catheter of 20 Fr have the same outer diameter, but the three-way catheter has an additional channel for irrigation, reducing the size of its drainage channel.

  3. Preferred metric sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preferred_metric_sizes

    In the United States, the alcohol industry switched to metric bottle sizes on October 1, 1976, abandoning the existing 38 sizes of bottles and instead adopting the following 6 sizes: [2] 50 mL (miniature) 200 mL (replaced the half-pint) (≈237 mL is a U.S. half-pint) 500 mL (replaced the pint) (≈473 mL is a U.S. pint)

  4. Dimensional analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_analysis

    The dimensions that can be formed from a given collection of basic physical dimensions, such as T, L, and M, form an abelian group: The identity is written as 1; [citation needed] L 0 = 1, and the inverse of L is 1/L or L −1. L raised to any integer power p is a member of the group, having an inverse of L −p or 1/L p.

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity. This is also often loosely taken to include replacement of a quantity with a corresponding quantity that describes the same physical property.

  6. List of drill and tap sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drill_and_tap_sizes

    For both of these rules of thumb (85%/90% and major minus pitch), the tap drill size yielded is not necessarily the only possible one, but it is a good one for general use. The 85% and 90% rules works best in the range of 1 ⁄ 4 –1 in (6.4–25.4 mm), the sizes most important on many shop floors. Some sizes outside that range have different ...

  8. Circular mil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mil

    The conversion factor from square mils to circular mils is therefore 4/ π cmil per square mil: 4 π c m i l m i l 2 . {\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {4}{\pi }}{\frac {cmil}{mil^{2}}}.}}} The formula for the area of an arbitrary circle in circular mils can be derived by applying this conversion factor to the standard formula for the area of a ...

  9. Zahn cup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zahn_cup

    There is also a long handle attached to the sides. There are five cup specifications, labelled Zahn cup #x, where x is the number from one through five (see table below). Large number cup sizes are used when viscosity is high, while low number cup sizes are used when viscosity is low.
