Use this drill bit size chart to cross-reference metric (mm), imperial (fractional and decimal inches), and gauge sizes — including number and letter — in a single reference table. Whether you're sizing a pilot hole for a screw or bolt, converting between measurement systems, or identifying an unmarked bit, find your size below and read across the row for the equivalent.
How to Use This Chart
The table covers drill bit sizes from 0.010mm to 25.4mm (1 inch). Find your required hole size in the metric or imperial column and read across to identify the equivalent gauge number, letter, fractional, or decimal size.
A few things to keep in mind. Not all metric drill bits have imperial equivalents and vice versa. Some metric values are close enough to share the same imperial counterpart. Values are rounded to the nearest thousandth millimetre or ten-thousandth decimal inch.
