Metric Conversions
The purpose of this document is to provide metric conversions for all listed ring sizes (by wire and mandrel diameter) used on this website. Soon I'll likely start listing metric values beside the imperial ones, but for now these charts will have to do.
The conversion used is simple: inches * 25.4 = mm. For example, a ring with a mandrel diameter of 1/4" would be (0.25 * 25.4 = 6.35 mm).
