Millimeters to micrometers
Type a value in mm to get it in µm instantly.
That's 1.17× as long as a credit card, while a smartphone is 1.5× longer. Walking, you would cover that in 71.43 milliseconds.
Convert the other way: µm to mm
What it means
How long is that?
Reference lengths are typical values. The inch, foot, yard and mile are defined exactly in meters (1 inch = 2.54 cm).
The math
How to convert mm to µm
To convert millimeters to micrometers, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 100 mm × 1,000 = 100,000 µm.
In the other direction, 1 µm = 0.001 mm.

About these units
Millimeters (mm)
A millimeter is a thousandth of a meter, roughly the thickness of a credit card. It is the everyday unit of engineering drawings and rainfall.
Micrometers (µm)
A micrometer is a thousandth of a millimeter, also called a micron. Bacteria, fibers and machining tolerances are measured in it.
