Mils per year to millimeters per year
Type a value in mpy to get it in mm/yr instantly.
0.254mm/yr
That's 2.5× as fast as excellent resistance, while good resistance is 1.97× faster. A 10 mm wall would last about 39.37 years at that rate.

What it means
How fast is it going?
These are uniform corrosion rates. Pitting attacks one spot far faster than the average, so a good overall rate can still perforate a pipe.
The math
How to convert mpy to mm/yr
To convert mils per year to millimeters per year, multiply by 0.0254.
Example: 10 mpy × 0.0254 = 0.254 mm/yr.
In the other direction, 1 mm/yr = 39.3701 mpy.
