Here is the answer with the math that shows you how to convert 9/16 inch to mm: 9 / 16 = 0.5625 0.5625 x 25.4 = 14.2875 9/16 inch = 14.2875 mm
How do you convert 9/16 to mm?
What is 9/16 to mm? Converting 9/16 inch to mm is a two-step process. First, we convert the fractional 9/16 inch to an inch as a decimal, and then we convert the inch as a decimal to millimeters as a decimal.
What is the size of a standard socket?
Common SAE Socket Sizes 1" 1-1/16" 1-1/8" 1-3/16" 1-1/4" 1-1/2" 1-3/4" 1-13/16" 1-7/8" 2" 2-1/8" 2-3/16" 2-1/4" 2-15/16" 3" 3-1/8"
What size socket for a 36mm fastener?
A 36mm socket is 1 7/16" in standard (SAE) size, almost. 1 7/16" converts into so a 1 7/16 socket is the standard socket that best fits a 36mm fastener. OK, all these questions might take a while, this socket conversion chart might be more helpful.
Can you use SAE sockets in a metric socket?
While you should have a full set of metric and SAE sockets to ensure your tools’ stability and longevity, there are a few instances when you can sub an SAE for a metric socket or vice versa. Below is a table of the commonly accepted changes you can make without worrying about damaging bolts or your sockets.

Standard sockets that work on Metric bolts (chart)
This socket conversion chart tells you which standard (SAE) socket to use with your metric (mm) fasteners, it is not a measurement conversion chart.
Standard Socket vs Metric Socket Sizes
Standard sockets are measured in inches while metric sockets are measured in milimeters (mm). Depending on the region you live in, one measurement system will be more common than the other. This can become frustrating because different manufacturers also embrace different measurement systems.
What is a 30 mm socket in standard size?
A 30mm socket is 1 3/16" in standard (SAE) size, almost. 1 3/16" converts into 30.163mm so 1 3/16 is the closest standard socket that may fit your 30mm fastener.
What is a 36 mm in standard size?
A 36mm socket is 1 7/16" in standard (SAE) size, almost. 1 7/16" converts into so a 1 7/16 socket is the standard socket that best fits a 36mm fastener.
Nonsparking 6-Point Sockets
Made of aluminum- bronze, these sockets satisfy OSHA requirements that specify nonsparking tools for locations where flammable vapors and combustible residues are present.
Electrical-Insulating 12-Point Sockets
Insulated to protect against accidental contact with live electrical circuits, these sockets are tested to 1, 000 volts to meet IEC 60900.
8-Point Sockets
Quickly position these sockets on square and external 8-point fasteners.
Universal-Fit Sockets
Turn many sizes of square, hex, and 8-point fasteners with one socket. Place over the fastener and 54 pins move to grip it securely.
Electrical-Insulating Hex Bit Sockets
Insulated to protect against accidental contact with live electrical circuits, these sockets are tested to 1, 000 volts to meet ASTM F1505 and IEC 60900.
Stubby Hex Bit Sockets
The short bit on these sockets fits in spaces where height clearance is limited.
Tight-Clearance Offset Sockets
Often used with an extension, these sockets turn fasteners and fittings in obstructed areas that a regular socket can't reach. They are also known as crowfoot wrenches.
What is the difference between a 12 point socket and a 6 point socket?
You can slip it over the hardware in any one of 12 positions, which makes it easier to align. While 12-point sockets are well suited for most light and household tasks, six-point sockets, on the other hand, have been chosen for more significant hardware situations that require substantial torque.
What are some examples of impact sockets?
Impact sockets are made in such a way they work with these other tools. A prime example is an electric or pneumatic impact wrench. If you use these, you will need a socket sets built to withstand these higher torques.
Can you touch a nut in a shallow socket?
Conventional shallow sockets may not touch a nut or bolt before the top of the stud or bolt hits the top of the socket, or you are working in a confined space. Spark plug sockets are a good example, as are some wheel nuts.
Sizing Wrenches for Metric Bolts
If you’re looking to find the right wrench for a metric bolt, the conversion is very much the same. Once you’ve identified which metric wrench you would use, look at the chart to locate its SAE counterpart. Now, we do realize that the chart doesn’t look complete on the metric side.
Converting Smaller Wrench Sizes
Didn’t see the spanner size you were looking for? No worries! We have both metric to SAE and SAE to metric conversion charts for hex keys. Be sure to read the instructions as smaller wrenches are more difficult to substitute for one another. Also, smaller pieces of hardware are more prone to getting stripped or damaged.
