How to use it

1. Type a value in any box.
2. The matching unit fills in automatically.

Example

Common film gauges: 0.75 mil = 19 µm, 1 mil = 25 µm, 1.5 mil = 38 µm, 2 mil = 51 µm, 3 mil = 76 µm, 4 mil = 102 µm, 6 mil = 152 µm.

Good to know

• North American suppliers usually quote film in mil; overseas suppliers often use microns.
• In some film specs, especially BOPP and polyester, “gauge” means 1/100 of a mil: 100 gauge = 1 mil.
