Millimeters per year to mils per year

Type a value in mm/yr to get it in mpy instantly.

393.7mpy

That's 2× as fast as poor resistance — nothing on our list beats it. A 10 mm wall would last about 1 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 mm/yr to mpy

To convert millimeters per year to mils per year, multiply by 39.3701.

Example: 10 mm/yr × 39.3701 = 393.701 mpy.

In the other direction, 1 mpy = 0.0254 mm/yr.
