To help this blog will explain the gauge system and features a sheet metal gauge 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.
For different materials of steel the same gauge will also correspond to different mm.
These dimensions vary slightly between different materials such as stainless steel and aluminium but should be accurate enough for most everyday purposes.
Typically the even number gauges are used more frequently.
