Mixture of metric and non-metric units

[edit]

This article refers to both (micro)meters and feet ('5 ft.'). It would surely be less confusing if one system of units were used throughout - and since we're talking about a Russian product rather than an American one (the writer uses American spellings like 'fiber' and 'micrometer'), and since most of the world uses the metric system, I feel metric should be preferred. Maybe there are general Wikipedia guidelines on this.31.15.247.228 (talk) 09:08, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
