How to convert microinches to rods
1 microinch is equal to 5.050505051 × 10⁻⁹ rods, and 1 rod is equal to 198,000,000 microinches. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
rods = microinches × 5.050505051 × 10⁻⁹
rods = microinches ÷ 198,000,000Example: convert 1 µin to rd: 1 × 5.050505051 × 10⁻⁹ = 5.050505051 × 10⁻⁹ rd.

About the microinch
A microinch is one millionth of an inch (25.4 nm). It's used to specify surface roughness in machining.
Symbol: µin · 1 µin = 2.54 × 10⁻⁸ m · Category: Imperial & US customary
About the rod
The rod is 16.5 feet (5.0292 m), or a quarter of a chain. It was used in land surveying and is still used to measure canoe portages.
