ARC-INCH Metric Conversion

ARC-INCH Metric Conversion

ARC-INCH Metric Conversion

(OP)
Hello all,
I am slowly moving all work to the metric system and occasionally I have a question on the equivalent units.  I have a drawing that tolerances the OD of a machined roll to (0.005 MAX/ARC-INCH).  What is the metric conversion of ARC-INCH?

Thanks in advance,
BB

RE: ARC-INCH Metric Conversion

Arc-mm?  Whether measured along an arc length or in a straight line, 1" is defined as 25.4mm.
