How do you measure the hole diameter in drilling?
A caliper log records the hole diameter measured using spring loaded caliper arms. Figure 9.2. 1 shows a variety of two, three, four, and six arm calipers. In general, the more arms, the more accurate the measurement of the shape and cross-sectional area of the wellbore.
How do you calculate hole size?
This formula is pi * radius squared * height = volume. This can predict the volume of a post hole, a golf hole or a hole you’re digging.
What are the numbers on drill bits?
Number drill bit gauge sizes range from size 80 (the smallest) to size 1 (the largest) followed by letter gauge size A (the smallest) to size Z (the largest). Although the ASME B94. 11M twist drill standard, for example, lists sizes as small as size 97, sizes smaller than 80 are rarely encountered in practice.

What is the diameter of hole?
A hole diameter or PHD refers to a production tool’s diameter that you use to drill holes. So, the calculation of a hole size diameter differed for non-plated through holes and plated through holes. For a non-plated through-hole, the calculation is the sum of the finished hole size and +0.00mm/0mil.
What is hole size?
The production hole diameter (PHD) is the diameter of the tool used in production to drill the hole. Production Hole Diameter or Toolsize = Finished Hole Size plus: + 0.10mm/4mil for Plated Through Holes. + 0.00mm/0mil for Non Plated Through Holes.
