Mils are a unit of measurement, comparable to degrees. On a compass 360 degrees is equivalent to 6400 mils. It is a measurement commonly used in the military because it can also be used to measure distance. At a distance of 1000 meters, 1 mil is equivalent to 1 meter.
For example, if you know a vehicle is 4 meters wide and it is measured from a distance as being four mils wide you know it stands at a distance of 1000 meters.

1 circular mil = 1 mil x 1 mil a=d2 so if a wire has a diameter of 80 mils, it has an area of 6400 circular mils.
To convert guage to mils, multiply by 0.01 (see related link). 1 gauge equals 0.01 mils
80 mils =80/1000 inch, or 2/25 inch
1583923.398777 inches. That is true if you are referring to millimetres in which case the abbreviations would be mm. Mils are an angular measurement where a circle is divided into 6400 mils in NATO military usage

To convert mils to circular mils, you simply square the mil measurement. Since one circular mil is defined as the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil, you can use the formula: Circular mils = (mils)². For example, if you have a wire with a diameter of 10 mils, the conversion to circular mils would be 10², resulting in 100 circular mils.
To convert points (pt) to mils, you can use the conversion factor where 1 point is equal to 1/1000 of an inch. Since there are 1000 mils in an inch, you can multiply the number of points by 0.001 to convert to inches and then multiply by 1000 to convert to mils. Therefore, to convert 17pt to mils: 17pt × 0.001 inches/pt × 1000 mils/inch = 17 mils.
