Convert mile to micron
Enter a value below to convert mile [mi, mi(Int)] to micron [µ]. Reverse conversion: Convert micron to mile.
1 mi, mi(Int) = 1609344000 µ. To convert mile to micron, multiply the value by 1609344000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 µ = 6.2137e-10 mi, mi(Int)). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Mile: Definition and Use
A mile is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. The international mile is defined as exactly 1,609.344 meters.
History/Origin
The word "mile" comes from the Latin "mille passus," meaning "a thousand paces." The Roman mile spread throughout their empire. The English statute mile was established by an Act of Parliament in 1592.
Current Use
The mile is used for measuring distances on roads in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is also used in horse racing.
Micron: Definition and Use
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.
