Notes
- King-size flip-top pack: 85 × 56 × 21 mm (a measured 1985 pack). Australian law allows any pack 85–125 high, 55–82 wide, 20–42 deep (lid closed); the UK requires a cuboid with ≥16 mm front-to-back.
- Cigarettes: king size 84 mm long, Ø7.7–7.9; 100s 99 mm (FDA filings), Ø7.8–7.9; a thinner 100s Ø6.94.
- Nicotine pouch can (VELO, maker-measured): Ø70 × 25 mm. ZYN, ON! and current 1.2 oz dip cans (Copenhagen, Grizzly, Skoal) are not published anywhere credible: a measured Xem scan is planned, and an old Copenhagen steel lid measured Ø57.2.
- Holders: add 0.5 mm per side to a pack, 0.3 mm to a can diameter.
