19 gauge steel is 1.11 mm thick and 20 gauge is .953 mm thick.
really thick really thick! That's a really thick answer. What people need to know is that 22 refers to Standard sheet and Wire Gauge. See: http://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=4143 Far from being thick it is rather thin especially if you want to weld it. It is 0.7mm
Roughly 15.6 mils or 15.6 thousandths of an inch. Roughly, 1 gauge = .86 mils.
The strength, durability, and longevity of steel caskets depends first of all on the quality and thickness of the metal sheets used. The United States Standard Gauge for the thickness of metal sheets is based on the number of sheets required to total one inch. The gauge number (ga) informs about the thickness of the steel sheets in such a way that the lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel. Low cost carbon steel caskets are usually made of 20-gauge steel. (20 sheets of 20ga steel have a thickness of one inch.) Twenty gauge steel sheets have a thickness of 1/20" or 0,8 mm; this is the same thickness as used in many automobile body panels. More expensive steel Caskets are made from 18- and 16-gauge steel. 16 ga steel sheets have a thickness of 1/16" or 1,3 mm. 16 ga steel is twice as heavy as 20 ga steel, 140% stronger and has a 140% longer life than 20ga.
It depends on the thickness and the density. One ton should be about 15 cubic feet when compacted, so it would cover 30 square feet 6 inches thick or 45 square feet 4 inches thick or 60 square feet 3 inches thick. It would make a driveway four inches thick, 9 feet wide and 5 feet long or a footpath 3 inches thick, three feet wide and 20 feet long.
26 guage = 0.0165", which is a bit more than 1/64" in fractions. Four sheets of 26 guage aluminum laid on top of each other would measure about 1/16" thick.
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.
It is thicker than 1/8th inch thick steel.
12 gauge is thicker than 14 gauge.
Both 31 and 32 gauge are close:31 gauge = 0.0105"32 gauge = 0.0097"
A 21 Gage Steel plate is about 1/32 inch thick. Various charts put it at .032" to .033". That is for plain steel. Galvanized, aluminum and stainless have different measurements for the same gage.
The upper decks which make up the superstructure of Titanic are made with 1/4" steel. The hull itself is an inch thick.

Gauge in floor tile is the thickness in thousandths of an inch. .080 is simply 8 one hundredths of an inch or about 1/12th of an inch thick .125 is 1/8" of an inch so it is 1/8" thick.
16 gauge pipe refers to the wall thickness of the pipe exclusive of its diameter.It is 0.064 inches thick, this is a steel wire gauge measurement.Pipes are typically sold by schedule numbers. A wall thickness of 0.064 inches would correspond to pipe schedule 40 for 1/8" diameter pipe (0.068"), schedule 10 for 1/4" and 3/8" pipe (0.065") and schedule 5 for pipe diameters 1/2" to 2" (0.065"). Over 2" diameter pipe, schedule 5 (the smallest wall thickness) is thicker than 16 gauge steel.

about 9 1/2 inches thick
Between 1 and 1 1/2 gauge
