Metal gauge is inversely proportional to thickness, the bigger the thickness lesser the gauge. Following is conversion table:- 10 G : 3.15 MM 11 G : 2.8 MM 12 G : 2.5 MM etc....
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...
A 100 gauge piece of aluminum has a thickness of 0.0010 inches. Gauge is a universal system used to measure the thickness of metal and wire.
12 gauge.
.085 inches of sheet metal is typically 12 gauge.
12 gauge is thicker than 20 gauge. The lower the gauge, the thicker the sheet metal or wire.

The 12-gauge is thicker.
12 gauge vs. 14 gauge metal
Sheet steel is 4.375 lb per feet squared; 4.531 lb per feet squared for galvanized steel; Stainless steel is 4.41 lb per square feet; and 1.140 lb per squared feet for aluminum.
Assuming this is a firearms question- the 14 gauge shotgun is very rare today. The bore diameter is smaller than a 12 g, larger than a 16g, and runs ABOUT 0.695 inches. That converts to about 17.65mm. If you are seeking to convert wire gauge, or sheet metal gauge to mm, please repost with that information.
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
