* Millimeter measurements are rounded off to the nearest 1/10.
•Example #1: If an item is 19 x 25mm...
it measures approximately 3/4" x 1".
•Example #2: If an item measures 5mm wide...
3.2mm + 1.6mm = 1/8" + 1/16" (see chart above)
so 5mm is about 3/16" wide.
•Example #3: If an item measures 32mm tall...
25.4mm + 6.4mm = 1" + 1/4" (see chart above)
so 32mm is about 1-1/4" tall.
