Im just a beginer at this and Im messing around with a project and for a rod tip has sizes 10-16 for the hole that goes over the tip was wondering if anyone knows the actual dimension of these sizes at all.

found my answer figure id put it on here for others know.

Tip tops are sized in 64ths of an inch, so a 4.5 tip top is 4.5/64 or .070". Here are the standard sizes and their equivalents. Please note that this does not refer to the diameter of the loop on the tip top, just the part that fits over the rod blank.

For reference 1mm = .0394" or 1" = 25.4mm
