I’m trying to find the exact physical dimensions and specification for a 110 film cartridge, ideally from the official ISO standard. If there’s a published document covering the cartridge size/shape, image area, and related details, which standard is it?

Ah my knowledge of the ridiculous and obscure may come in handy! You want ISO 13450 (1996), which has all the juicy details on 110 film (size/shape of the cartridge, exposure area, speeds, etc.).
Sadly I'm not sure where you can get a copy without forking over the Swiss Francs to the ISO folks - Perhaps someone else has a hook-up though.
Perhaps also helpful - I think 110 is just a smaller 126 cartridge (it's been a while since I shot anything that wasn't 35mm or sheets/plates - someone correct me if I'm wrong).
If you can turn up a CAD document for a 126 cartridge you can shrink it 'till it fits...

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
The relevant specification is ISO 13450:1996. According to the community answer, it covers the key details for 110 film, including the cartridge size and shape, exposure area, and related specifications. If you need exact dimensions, the official ISO document is the right source rather than relying on informal drawings. ISO standards often need to be purchased from ISO or a national standards body. The suggestion that 110 is "just a smaller 126 cartridge" is not something to rely on for accurate engineering or CAD work, so use the ISO standard if precision matters.
