The smaller the gage the thicker the material; therefore, for the same material, 14 gage is stronger.

A 75 foot tree trunk is cut into three pieces The longest piece is three times the smallest piece and the other piece is 5 feet longer than the smaller piece Find the length of each piece?
Let p be the size of the smallest piece. Then we know that it (p) plus the middle piece (p + 5) and the longest piece (3 x p) adds up to 75. p + (p+5) + 3p = 75 => 2p + 5 + 3p = 75 => 5p = 75 - 5 => 5p = 70 => p = 14 So the smallest piece is p = 14 ft. The middle piece is p + 5 = 19 ft. And the largeset peice is 3p = 42 ft. Adding the sizes to check: 14 + 19 + 42 = 75

Is 16 gauge steel bigger than 14 gauge steel?
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...
Is steel gauge thickness and wire gauge thickness the same?
They are close but not the same. For example, 14 gauge steel is .0781 inches thick while 14 gauge steel wire is .083 inches thick.

How many mm thickness is 12 gauge steel?
12 gauge is thicker than 14 gauge.
What is stronger holding current load a 12 gauge wire or a 14 gauge wire?
The lower gauge number is always a thicker wire which can carry more current.
How thick is 13 gauge steel?
Pipe and sheet metal of various types use different scales. For 14 gauge metal, the thicknesses would be (in inches): 0.0781 inches - US Standard Gauge 0.0747 inches - Sheet Steel 0.079 inches - Galvanized Steel 0.0781 inches - Stainless Steel 0.083 inches - Tubing Thus, 14 gauge pipe would nominally be 0.083 inches thick.

How much weight can 14 gauge steel tubed bench hold?
If you're referring to 14 gauge steel wire, about 60-65 pounds safely, but remember, supported weight depends not only on the wire, but the screws and nails that are attached to the object and the wall or ceiling. (Not to mention the material of the wall or ceiling. Drywall will hold much less than hardwood, so use a stud finder if possible to drill/nail into the wall or ceiling for added support) When in doubt, always use stronger, thicker materials than you think you'll need.
