10-inch

Roughly a handspan

A 10-inch refers to something measuring ten inches in a key dimension, most commonly a vinyl record played at 78 RPM—the standard format before 12-inch LPs dominated.

The term also describes screen sizes, pizza diameters, or pan dimensions: I ordered the 10-inch for myself.

In contexts involving vinyl collecting or DJing, a 10-inch usually means the record format specifically.
