Plastic Liners: How-to for Learning Microns to Mils Formulas

When talking about plastic liners, it is important to learn how to convert microns to mils. Some basic formulas for doing this can be found in the table below: Microns to Mils formulas are crucial for today's plastic liners. Microns to Mils Table 6 = 0.23 7 = 0.27 8 = 0.31 9 = 0.35 10 = 0.39 11 = 0.43 12 = 0.47 13 = 0.51 14 = 0.55 15 = 0.59 16 = 0.62 17 = 0.66 18 = 0.70 19 = 0.74 20 = 0.78 21 = 0.82 22 = 0.86 23 = 0.90 24 = 0.94 25 = 0.98 Microns to Mils Formula Divide the microns by 25.4 to arrive at Mil thickness. Example: 10 Microns / 25.4 = .39 Mil 24 Microns / 25.4 = .94 Mil Mils to Microns Formula Multiply the mils by 25.4 to arrive at mil thickness. Example: 1 Mil = 25.4 Microns. 30 Mil x 25.4 = 7.6 Microns. 65 Mil x 25.4 = 16.5 Microns For more information regarding conversion rates for industrial packaging, visit IPS Packaging's extensive how-to guides as well as our cost savings stories.
