Take for instance 12 gauge thickness across the material types listed below.
Stainless sheet metal thickness chart.
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.
Stainless steel is 0 105 thick aluminum is 0 080 copper is 0 108 and brass is 0 081.
Stainless steel sheet 0 45mm to less than 5 0mm astm a240m atlas steels has from years of experience determined the popular range of grades widths and thicknesses of stock to be held inits bulk coil program at its processing service centre to meet customer demand.
It is important to know that the gauge thicknesses also vary depending on the type of sheet metal being referenced.
A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
