do any of you have micrometer values for a standard handcuff key?

I'm looking for diameter of the key barrel where it enters the keyhole,
what is the diameter of the pinslot in the key?
how tall and wide and thick is the tab on the key that turns the locking mechanism in the cuffs?

nevermind, it's i/8th inch for the width of the barrel key
1/8 inch for the keys tab in both length and width, 1/20 inch in thickness
and the pin in the cuffs is 1mm?!? smaller than 1/8th inch (almost 7/32 inch)

Your figures don't seem that accurate. I can give them in Millimeters and you can convert if needs be.

that'd be great!
it seemed odd to me that most of the measurements seemed american standard
but then the pin seemed surely metric!

i'm interested in seeing what you come up with.
