Please provide values below to Convert mil [mil, thou] to nanometer [nm], or vice versa.
What is a Mil/Thou?
A mil (or thou) is 0.001 inch (25.4 μm), crucial in precision engineering. The term 'thou' is preferred in machining to avoid confusion with millimeter. Human hair measures 3-5 thou, while printer paper is about 10 thou thick.
What is a Nanometer (nm)?
The nanometer (nm) is equal to one billionth of a meter. It is used in nanotechnology, quantum physics, and measuring wavelengths of light.
