Sheets ordered by gauge weight or thickness are subject to standard thickness and weight tolerances.
Galvanized sheet metal thickness in mm.
Sheet metal thickness is denoted by gauge sometimes spelled gage which indicates a standard thickness before processing.

A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
The galvanized sheet gauge is based on the u s.
As a registered iso 9001 2015 company rolled steel products state of the art equipment meets virtually any requirement in panel flat quality leveling precision slitting close tolerance sheet blanking strip quality edge conditioning precision shearing and complete cold reducing capabilities.
The gauge number 18 holds no relevance to the actual measurements.
For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter.
Standard gauge number regardless of coating weights.
Processing may include polishing or the applying of protective plastics which will decrease or increase a sheet s thickness respectively.
Each galvanized sheet gauge number is 2 5 ounces per sq.
