Ring sizes can be measured physically by a paper, plastic, or metal ring sizer (as a gauge) or by measuring the inner diameter of a ring that already fits. Ring sticks are tools used to measure the inner size of a ring, and are typically made from plastic, delrin , wood, aluminium, or of multiple materials.
The typical range lies between 1 ⁄ 2 to 2 ⁄ 3 inch (12.7 to 16.9 mm) for the UK/US size system and 4 ⁄ 3 to 5 ⁄ 3 cm (13.3 to 16.7 mm) for the European size system, but may extend to 1 ⁄ 4 to 3 ⁄ 4 inch (6.4 to 19.1 mm) and 2 ⁄ 3 to 6 ⁄ 3 cm (6.7 to 20.0 mm).
The ring has a large ruby etched with a St George's Cross and bordered by 26 diamonds.

The tip and ring convention is based on the 1 ⁄ 4 ″ (6.5 mm) TRS phone connectors, which were employed in telephone switchboards in the 19th and 20th centuries, where the tip contact of the connector is separated from the ring contact by a spacer of insulation.
There are multiple size types, designed to fit somewhat different body shapes. Variations include the height of the person's torso (known as back length), whether the bust, waist, and hips are straighter (characteristic of teenagers) or curvier (like many adult women), and whether the bust is higher or lower (characteristic of younger and older women, respectively).
The French scale measures the outer diameter of the catheter, not the size of the internal drainage channel (inner diameter). For instance, a two-way catheter of 20 Fr and a three-way catheter of 20 Fr have the same outer diameter, but the three-way catheter has an additional channel for irrigation, reducing the size of its drainage channel.
