I'm trying to create a 48x48 px icon for an Android app according Google material icon guidelines. Now, the guidelines mentioned here material.io/guidelines/style/icons.html# doesn't tell about the radius and overall padding (Z) of icon for Product icons. It also doesn't tell (or maybe I don't understand. I'm having hard time figuring it out) what the distance Y should be (see image).

I currently have given 1 + 4 = 5 px (Z) padding. I understand why should I give padding 1 px (X) as it's mentioned there, but not sure about other 4 px (it should be less or more).

Further, 2nd doubt is about radius. Is the radius should be given to outermost invisible path (O) (doesn't make sense if I'm right) or the visible inner path (I)? And how much it should be? I'm asking this because again it's not mentioned for Product icons guide.

Note: I have created this icon according to square guidelines shown in the green colored image at the top of the page I have mentioned above.
