Guage is the thickness of the stainless steel, or other kind of metal.
3/16" or 0.1875" *** 7 gauge steel sheet is .1793", not .1875" *** Different metals have different thickness for their gauge...mild steel is .1793, aluminum is .1443, stainless steel is .1875
16 gauge is thicker. Remember...the lower the guage the thicker the metal.
The actual thickness associated with a "gauge range" varies largely by industry. Gauges are OK for ball-parking, but are not adequate for engineering purposes. Producing mills and reputable service centers work from actual measurements or minimum thicknesses.

Guage is the thickness of the stainless steel, or other kind of metal.
18 gauge stainless steel is 0.0500 inches thick.
You can bring almost anything, including a stainless steel garbage can, to your local recycling center. You can find the nearest one to your current location at the Earth911 website.
The difference between 18 gauge and 22 gauge stainless steel is the thickness. The 18 gauge is 0.050" thick, and the 22 gauge is 0.031" thick. A link is provided below to an article with a list of the conversions. You'll note that the cited thickness for the gauges of stainless do not apply to galvanized steel, aluminum, zinc, brass or other metals.
The finish of a product would be considered as heavy gauge steel. For instance, an espresso maker could have a heavy gauge stainless steel finish.
Your question isn't really a question but a statement that is a copy/paste from a website that should have been flagged as inappropriate but beings it has made it to this stage then I will agree that the Waste King company provides very good garbage disposal.

There is stainless steel and there is magnaized stainless steel but you can not make regular stainless steel magnetic
