Common questions Does anyone actually measure in 128ths? Rarely by eye — a 128th is about 0.2 mm, finer than most rules are engraved. The grid matters as a boundary: it is the last fractional step before work moves to decimal inches and thousandths. How big is 1/128 of an inch in millimetres? 1/128″ is exactly 0.1984375 mm. Every mm value on this chart is exact, at 25.4 mm to the inch. Where this comes from.
Exact rational arithmetic on the values shown — fractions are pairs of integers until
display, and inch–metric conversion uses 25.4 mm to the inch, exact by definition since 1959.
