Stainless steel sheet metal gauge sizes.

Stainless steel sheet metal tolerances thickness in. 304 stainless steel sheet is the most popular and economical of the stainless steels. Charts for aluminum steel stainless steel and galvanized steel sheet are presented here with thicknesses ranging from 1 64 to 1 4 inch. Our stainless steel sheet metal is available in stock sizes or cut to size.

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. For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter. 304 stainless sheet offers good corrosion resistance to many chemical corrodents as well as industrial atmospheres and marine environments. The charts include fractional decimal and metric dimensions for reference.

Gauge and weight chart for sheet steel galvanized steel stainless steel aluminum and strip tubing. The manufacturers standard gage provides the thicknesses for standard steel galvanized steel and stainless steel.

The gauge number 18 holds no relevance to the actual measurements. Wire gauge is a measure for the size of a wire either in diameter or in cross sectional area. This type of stainless sheet thickness provides excellent corrosion resistance for both industrial and marine applications. Gauge numbers continue both to thicker and thinner sections but these charts cover the most common ranges.
