Formula and precision policy
mm = inch × 25.4 → 0.625 × 25.4 = 15.8750 mm
The exact conversion uses 1 inch = 25.4 mm. This page displays 15.8750 mm by default. For CNC, inspection, RFQ, or supplier documents, keep the precision required by the drawing, tolerance block, process plan, or inspection equipment.
Manufacturing context and caveat
A 5/8 inch value can be found in material and hardware contexts. Keep drawing notes, finish allowance, and supplier tolerances separate from the unit conversion.
Reference-only caveat: this conversion does not certify tolerance, fit, pressure, load, code compliance, material equivalence, or interchangeability. Confirm the controlling drawing, standard, supplier data, and engineering approval before manufacturing.
