Millimeters per year to micrometers per year
Type a value in mm/yr to get it in µm/yr instantly.
10,000µm/yr
That's 2× as fast as poor resistance — nothing on our list beats it. A 10 mm wall would last about 1 years at that rate.
Convert the other way: µm/yr to mm/yr
What it means
How fast is it going?
These are uniform corrosion rates. Pitting attacks one spot far faster than the average, so a good overall rate can still perforate a pipe.
The math
How to convert mm/yr to µm/yr
To convert millimeters per year to micrometers per year, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 10 mm/yr × 1,000 = 10,000 µm/yr.
In the other direction, 1 µm/yr = 0.001 mm/yr.
