How to Convert Angular Mils to Gradians
To convert angular mils to gradians, multiply the angle by the following conversion ratio: 0.0625 gradians/angular mil.
Since one angular mil is equal to 0.0625 gradians, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The angle in gradians is equal to the angle in angular mils multiplied by 0.0625.
For example, here's how to convert 5 angular mils to gradians using the formula above.
How Many Gradians Are in an Angular Mil?
There are 0.0625 gradians in an angular mil, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
Our angular mil to gradian calculator automatically converts your angle measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.
Angular Mils and gradians are both units used to measure angle. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is an Angular Mil?
An angular mil is a unit of angle equal to 0.05625 degrees (°), the base unit for angle. Artillery & compass angle unit (6,400 mils = 360°, 1 mil = 0.05625°). [1]
The angular mil is classified as a standard unit of angle. Angular Mils can be abbreviated as mil; for example, 1 angular mil can be written as 1 mil.
When working with angular mils (mil) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, angular mils (mil) are widely used across standard angle applications within international standard workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
What Is a Gradian?
A gradian is a unit of angle equal to 0.9 degrees (°), the base unit for angle. 1/400 of a full circle (0.9°). [2]
The gradian is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of angle. Gradians can be abbreviated as grad; for example, 1 gradian can be written as 1 grad.
When working with gradians (grad) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, gradians (grad) are widely used across standard angle applications within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
When converting angle between angular mils (mil) and gradians (grad), keep full floating-point precision (1 mil = 0.0625 grad; 1 grad = 16 mil) during intermediate calculations and round only the final gradian figure to match your instrument tolerance.
