What is the closest inch size drill bit to a 7mm drill bit.

7mm = 0.27559 inches
1/4" = 0.25" or... 6.35mm
17/64" = 0.265625... or 6.74688mm
9/32" = 0.28125... or 7.14375mm
5/16" = 0.3125
Those are the most common drill bit sizes in SAE measurements... none come to exactly the same as 7 mm. If you want something just slightly smaller, then you want the 17/64" -- tho, that may be a hard to find size.... a 1/4" inch bit is only 6.35mm, slightly smaller. a 9/32" bit.. which you can find in every hardware store, is slightly larger, coming in at 7.14375mm
Most common drill bit sets will carry the 1/4" and the 9/32".
Below is a link to an eBay search for "7mm drill bit" ... there are several different types, from diamond, to masonry bits.
Good Luck!

1 Inch is 25.4 mm, so you want about 1/4 inch or 3/8

You need metric drill bits.

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters... sooooo... give me a sec...
1/4 inch is too small, so probably 5/16 or 9/32 (not likely to have that, I think).
