Effortlessly convert circular mil to sabin with our precise tool, crafted by Newtum to enhance your conversion accuracy. Unveil the simplicity of mil^2 to ft^2 conversions!
A circular mil is a unit of area, equivalent to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch). It is commonly used in the electrical industry for quantifying the cross-sectional area of wires and cables, which is crucial in determining their capacity to carry an electric current.
Definition of SabinA Sabin is a non-metric unit of sound absorption used in acoustical engineering. One Sabin is equal to one square foot of a perfectly absorbing surface—such as an open window—which absorbs all incident sound. The term is derived from the name of Wallace Clement Sabine, a pioneer in the field of architectural acoustics.

1 Circular Mil = 0.0000007854 ft^2 (Sabin)
1 Sabin (ft^2) = 1,273,239.544 Circular Mils
Example 1:
Convert 5000 Circular Mils to Sabins:
5000 Circular Mils = 5000 × 0.0000007854 ft^2 = 0.003927 ft^2
Example 2:
Convert 15000 Circular Mils to Sabins:
15000 Circular Mils = 15000 × 0.0000007854 ft^2 = 0.011781 ft^2
The concept of converting circular mils to sabins stems from the need to translate wire cross-sectional areas into a unit of acoustic absorption—the Sabin. This conversion is pivotal in fields where both electrical properties and sound absorption characteristics are considered, blending principles from electrical engineering and acoustics.
Discover the practicality of the Circular Mil to Sabin Converter for your next project.
Example 1: To convert 10,000 circular mils to sabins, the calculation is 10,000 × 0.0000007854 = 0.007854 ft^2 (sabins).
