Note that the term heavy gauge plastic is not to be confused with heavy mil referring to heavy plastic sheeting.
Thickness of plastic sheeting gauges.
50mu 200 gauge 0 05mm.
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.
In the english measurement system we use inches in decimals and gauge so a sheet of 005 thick material is also 500 gauge.

Here is a chart and a calculator to help you move between the units.
Plastic film and sheet thickness is expressed in a number of different formats all related to length.
Example of conversion from mil to micron.
The gauge of polythene can be converted to micron by dividing by 4.
For example additives added to the plastic such as the fire retardant additive may play a more significant role than the thickness of the plastic if the job requires fr flame retardant plastic.
