Works by eighth's of inches. ie no1 = 1/8inch (about 3mm) no2 = 1/4inch (about 6mm), no.3 = 3/8inch, no.4=1/2inch, no5=5/8inch. Some clippers go all the way up to a no.8 which is an inch long. Hope that helps.

one is the shortest and 5 is the longest, they vary by 1/4 inches, and you can move the blades on your clippers up and down for added variations another 1/4 inch.
