Thicker.
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...
The lower the gauge the heavier, sheet metal, wire & shotguns...
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
In steel, a thickness of 1875 mils is equivalent to 1.875 inches or approximately 47.63 mm. However, gauge measurements for steel typically use a different standard, and 1875 mils does not correspond directly to a gauge number in the commonly used American wire gauge (AWG) or sheet metal gauge systems. Instead, it is essential to refer to specific charts or tables that relate mils or inches to gauge numbers for accurate conversion.
18 gauge steel is thicker than 19 gauge steel. The lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel; specifically, 18 gauge steel is approximately 0.048 inches thick, while 19 gauge steel is about 0.042 inches thick. Therefore, 18 gauge steel provides more strength and durability compared to 19 gauge.
No. The larger the number, the thinner the steel. 16 gauge is the thicker of the two.

26-gauge steel is 0.0179" thick.
1.27 mm
No, 6 gauge steel is thicker than 10 gauge steel. The gauge number decreases as the thickness of the steel increases, so a lower gauge number indicates a thicker steel.

Sheet metal @ 8 gauge is 0.1644 inches for standard steel and 0.1285 for aluminum.
What is "it"?What is it? Wire? Sheet metal? What?PolytheneIn the case of polythene, gauge can be converted to thickness by dividing by four to get the thickness in micron or dividing by 4000 to get the thickness in mm. Here are some common examples:100 gauge = 25 micron = 0.025mm 120 gauge = 30 micron = 0.03mm 200 gauge = 50 micron = 0.05mm 250 gauge = 62.5 micron = 0.0625mm 400 gauge = 100 micron = 0.1mm

The lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel.
20 gauge is thicker (the lower the number, the thicker the steel).
It depends on whether you are referring to sheet metal, wire or a shotgun. For sheet metal, 20 gauge is a thickness of 0.0359 inches (steel), 0.0396 inches (galvanized steel) or 0.0320 (aluminum). In American Wire Gauge (AWG), a 20 gauge wire is 0.032 inches (0.813mm) in diameter. A 20-gauge shotgun is a caliber of 0.615 inches (15.621mm).
