The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level. The Millimeter (mm) is perfect for very small measurements like the thickness of a credit card (0.76 mm), the diameter of a pencil lead (0.5-0.7 mm), or the size of small hardware components. Commonly used in engineering, jewelry design and manufacturing.
To convert between Fathom (ftm) and Millimeter (mm), use the following formulas:
1 Fathom (ftm) = 1828.8 Millimeter (mm)
1 Millimeter (mm) = 0.0005468066491688539 Fathom (ftm)
1 ftm = 1 * 1828.8 mm = 1828.8 mm
5 ftm = 5 * 1828.8 mm = 9144 mm
10 ftm = 10 * 1828.8 mm = 18288 mm
20 ftm = 20 * 1828.8 mm = 36576 mm
50 ftm = 50 * 1828.8 mm = 91440 mm
100 ftm = 100 * 1828.8 mm = 182880 mm
