1mm is about the length of the thickness of a typical ID or credit card, so it's a very small unit of length. Here are some things you might use this tiny unit to measure:

  • the width of a watch battery
  • width of a paperclip
  • length and width of many electronics components
  • length of your pencil lead (the part that is exposed)
  • length of an eyelash
  • width of your fingernail after you've clipped it off
  • width of a typical gemstone set into a ring or earring
  • width of your pencil eraser
  • width of a medication tablet or capsule
  • width of a typical keyboard "button" or "key"
