Convert micron to inch (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert micron [µ] to inch (US survey) [in (US)], or Convert inch (US survey) to micron.
1 µ = 3.93700000002e-05 in (US). To convert micron to inch (US survey), multiply the value by 3.93700000002e-05; to go the other way, divide by it (1 in (US) = 25400.0508 µ). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 µ = 3.93700000002e-05 in (US)
- 1 in (US) = 25400.0508 µ

Micron
A micron is a non-SI name for micrometer (µm), which is a unit of length equal to one-millionth of a meter.
History/Origin
The term "micron" and the symbol µ were officially declared obsolete by the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1967 and are now discouraged.
Current Use
While the term micrometer is the officially recognized term, "micron" is still used in some industries and in casual speech.
Inch (Us Survey)
The U.S. survey inch is a unit of length equal to 1/12 of a U.S. survey foot.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey inch is based on the U.S. survey foot, which was defined such that 1 meter is exactly 39.37 inches. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey inch was used for land surveying in the United States.
