How to Measure a Button Like a Pro! 🔘📏

Ever wondered how button sizes are measured in garments? Whether you're a merchandiser, designer, or manufacturer, knowing the right button size is crucial for quality and consistency. Here's a quick guide! 👇

📌 How to Measure a Button:

✔ Measure the diameter across the widest part using a caliper or ruler.

 ✔ Button sizes are measured in Lines (L), where 1L = 0.635 mm.

 ✔ Example: A 20L button = 12.7 mm in diameter.

📌 Quick Button Size Chart:

🔹 16L = 10.16 mm (0.40 in)

 🔹 18L = 11.43 mm (0.45 in)

 🔹 20L = 12.70 mm (0.50 in)

 🔹 24L = 15.24 mm (0.60 in)

 🔹 32L = 20.32 mm (0.80 in)

💡 Pro Tips:

 ✔ Thickness matters! A thicker button can impact the sewing process and garment appearance.

 ✔ Check the buttonhole size! Ensure the button passes through smoothly without excess gap.

 ✔ Material affects durability! Plastic, metal, and shell buttons have different strengths and textures.

Understanding button sizes helps in better garment production, ensuring accuracy and quality! 👕✨
