Typically the even number gauges are used more frequently.
Gi sheet metal gauge.
This chart covers the common and uncommon sheet metal sizes for steel aluminum and galvanized steel.
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.
The gauge number 18 holds no relevance to the actual measurements.
The following sheet metal gauge size reference chart gives the weight and thickness of sheet metal given as a gauge sometimes spelled gage and indicates the standard thickness of sheet metal and wire for most materials as the gauge number increases the material thickness decreases.
The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material.
For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter.
A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
Gauge or gage dimensions are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet and a higher number refers to a thinner sheet.
