Convert yards to nanometers with this simple formula:

nanometers = yards × 914,400,000

Converting a yard length measurement to a nanometer measurement involves multiplying the length by the conversion ratio to find the result. One yard is equal to 914,400,000 nanometers, so to convert simply multiply by 914,400,000.

For example:

5 yd = (5 × 914,400,000) = 4,572,000,000 nm

Yards and nanometers are both units used to measure length. Learn more about length and find more length measurement conversion calculators. Yards are an imperial measurement and can be abbreviated as yd, for example 1 yd. Nanometers are a metric measurement and can be abbreviated as nm, for example 1 nm. Learn more about the metric system, including the common unit prefixes and how to convert between metric units.

In 1959 the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa agreed to define the yard as yard as exactly 0.9144 meters. Historically the yard has been a common form of measurement with its usage dating back to the Romans. In the US, fabrics and carpeting is sold by the square yard, which is equal to an area 1yd by 1yd.

A nanometer is an extremely small unit of length measurement, equal to one billionth of a meter. The nanometer is used to measure things that are very small, such as the transistors and electrical pathways in computer processors and nanotechnology. Internationally it is spelled nanometre.

We recommend using a ruler or tape measure for measuring length, which can be found at a local retailer or home center. Rulers are available in imperial, metric, or combination with both values, so make sure you get the correct type for your needs. If you need a ruler you can also download and print our free printable rulers which include both imperial and metric measurements.
