Why is a ball given in the gauge glass?
incase if boiler gauge glass breaks...this steel ball fits on the tube and it prevents of leakage of water.
Will a ball of steel bounce higher then a ball of glass?
yes
What is the Thickness of 20 gauge stainless steel?
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.
Why gauge increase with thickness decrease?
The concept of the gauge originated with pistols, and later shotguns. The gauge described the size of the barrel by the fraction of a pound of a round iron ball that just fits the barrel. For example, a 12 guage shotgun has a barrel that will just fit a round iron ball that is one twelfth of a pound. This measurement stemmed from cannon measurements, which measured the cannon by the size of the cannon ball it fired (such as a 6 pound cannon, or 20 pound cannon). There are different gauges that describe thickness, including the American Wire Gauge that measures the thickness (diameter) of electrical wire, US Steel Wire Gauge for steel wire, Sheet Metal Gauge, etc.
What is a steel ball?
A steel ball is a ball, or sphere, made of steel. An example would be a ball bearing, and the whole world runs on bearings, many of which are of the ball bearing variety.
What is drop ball test?
You drop a 4.5kg steel ball, which represents the weight of the average persons head from a height of 1.2m onto whatever material you want to test, which in my case is glass.

What is a Steele?
A steel ball is a ball, or sphere, made of steel. An example would be a ball bearing, and the whole world runs on bearings, many of which are of the ball bearing variety.
How is the density of a steel ball different from a steel ship?
Density = mass/volume let us say the mass of the steel ball and the ship are same. but the steel ball is fully enclosed, a tight spherical volume, where as the ship is a hollow, occupies more volume (multiple times) as that of the spherical ball. Considering the first equation, u know well the density of steel ball is much higher than the steel ship.
