Want this question answered?
16 gauge is thicker. Remember...the lower the guage the thicker the metal.
12 gauge is thicker than 20 gauge. The lower the gauge, the thicker the sheet metal or wire.
The 12-gauge is thicker.
Smaller number is thicker metal.
14 gauge is thicker than 16 gauge.
The lower the gauge the heavier, sheet metal, wire & shotguns...
No. The lower the gauge the thicker the material. This is common in sheet metal and wire thickness (diameter).
The thickness of metal wire is inversely proportional to the guage number of the metal wire. So 28 guage metal wire is thicker than 30 guage metal wire.
The metal of the 17 gauge waste drain is thicker than the 20 gauge.
No. The larger the number, the thinner the steel. 16 gauge is the thicker of the two.
A rather thin copper or aluminum wire.
GAUGE , is one inch thick of steel or metal. So, take this one inch thick of steel sheet and cut it into 12 equal thickness sheets , you get a 12 gauge steel sheet. Similarly, take this one inch thick of steel sheet and cut it into 14 equal thickness sheets , you get a 14 gauge steel sheet. and so on . So, a 12 gauge steel sheet is thicker than 14 gauge , 14 is thicker than 16 , 16 is thicker than 18 and so on. Wrong!!! See my discussion on this...
