Centiinch

A centiinch is a very small unit of length equal to one-hundredth of an inch (0.01 inch). It is not commonly used in everyday measurement but may appear in fields requiring precise fractional measurements based on the inch.

Key details:

• 
  

  1 centiinch = 0.01 inch

  
  
• 
  

  Equivalent to 0.254 millimeters

  
  
• 
  

  Used for fine measurements where inch subdivisions are preferred

  
  
• 
  

  Rare and mostly of specialized or historical interest

  
  

The centiinch allows for more detailed measurements within the inch system, similar to how centimeters subdivide a meter.

Kiloyard

A kiloyard is a less commonly used unit of length that equals 1,000 yards. Since one yard is exactly 0.9144 meters, a kiloyard is equivalent to 914.4 meters or 0.9144 kilometers.

While not widely used in everyday measurements or scientific contexts, the kiloyard may occasionally appear in specialized fields like military applications, ballistics, or older engineering texts where large distances were measured in yards. It follows the metric-style prefix "kilo-" (meaning one thousand) combined with the imperial unit "yard."

Conversion:

• 
  

  1 kiloyard = 1,000 yards

  
  
• 
  

  1 kiloyard = 914.4 meters

  
  
• 
  

  1 kiloyard ≈ 0.568 miles

  
  

Due to the dominance of the metric system and the more common use of miles for longer imperial distances, the kiloyard remains a rare and non-standard unit in most modern contexts.
