11/32" to mm - SAE to Metric Calculator

Do you need to convert 11/32 inch to mm?

11/32 inch = 8.73125 mm

If you're curious how we got that answer, here's the 11/32" to mm formula:

11 ÷ 32 × 25.4 = 8.73125 mm
0.34375 × 25.4 = 8.73125 mm

To convert 11/32 inch to mm, divide 11 by 32 to convert the fraction to a decimal. Then, multiply that by 25.4 since there are 25.4 millimeters in one inch.

That's the formula that our calculator uses to find that 11/32 inch to millimeters is 8.73125 mm.

How to Convert SAE to Metric

SAE, or standard, and metric sockets, wrenches, and fasteners are both commonly used, but the difference between them is significant. Before we explain how to convert SAE to metric, it’s important to understand what these terms actually mean.

SAE stands for Society of Automotive Engineers,[1] and is based on standard imperial and U.S. customary measurement systems. It uses measurements in inch fractions and is most commonly used in the United States.

The metric system was developed more recently and is commonly used worldwide. Metric sockets and screws are primarily measured in millimeters.

You can use the chart below to convert an SAE size to metric. You can also do the conversion by hand in a few easy steps as follows:

Step One: Convert the Inch Fraction to an Inch Decimal

The first step is to convert the inch fraction to a decimal. You can do this by treating the fraction as a division problem and solving it.

For instance:
1/4″ = 1 ÷ 4 = 0.25″

Step Two: Convert the Inch Decimal to Millimeters

The next step is to multiply the inch decimal by 25.4 to convert it to millimeters. This is the key step for converting SAE to metric.

0.25″ × 25.4 = 6.35 mm
