Mil (mil). A mil, also called a thou, is one thousandth of an inch (0.0254 mm), used for thin films, wire and coatings.
Nanometer (nm). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, used for wavelengths of light and the size of molecules.
There are 25,400 nanometers in one mil.
Multiply the number of mils by 25,400. For example, 10 mils equal 254,000 nanometers.
One nanometer equals 3.93701 × 10⁻⁵ mils.
304,800 nanometers. Other common values: 5 mils = 127,000 nanometers and 100 mils = 2,540,000 nanometers.
