Sheet metal gauge size chart gauge or gage sizes are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet metal with a higher number referring to a thinner sheet.
Galvanized sheet metal thickness metric.
Originally used in the fields of medicine and jewellery the larger the number the smaller the diameter and now it is also used to indicate the thickness.
As a registered iso 9001 2015 company rolled steel products state of the art equipment meets virtually any requirement in panel flat quality leveling precision slitting close tolerance sheet blanking strip quality edge conditioning precision shearing and complete cold reducing capabilities.
We offer three types of metric low carbon steel sheets.
The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material.
Cold rolled carbon steel sheet metal is used in automotive panels trailer siding roofing and fuel tanks.
Thickness in inches weight thickness in millimeters.
For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter.

Gague are used to specify the thickness of a metal sheet.
A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
