To convert 1.5 millimeter to inch, multiply 1.5 by the conversion factor 0.039370. The calculation is 1.5 x 0.039370 = 0.059055 inch. For practical purposes, this is often rounded to 0.0591 inch.

1.5 millimeter equals exactly 0.059055 inch. For practical purposes, this is often rounded to 0.0591 inch.

Objects measuring approximately 1.5 millimeter include the width of a common 0805 surface mount resistor (1.25mm), the diameter of a 1.5 millimeter hex key, and the thickness of a standard compact disc (1.2mm).

Converting millimeter to inch is useful for international manufacturing collaboration, integrating components from different measurement systems, and ensuring compatibility in global supply chains, especially when working with designs or tools originating from countries primarily using the Imperial system.

A simple memory aid is to recall that 1 millimeter is roughly 0.04 inch. For 1.5 millimeter, you can quickly estimate it as 1.5 times 0.04, which is 0.06 inch. For precision, remember the full factor 0.039370.
