In an earlier article we took a look at the standard gauges for steel sheet.

Copper sheet gauge to mm conversion.

Conveniently determine the diameter in inches or millimeters of wire gauges from 10 to 38 gauge. The n gauge wire diameter d n in millimeters mm is equal to 0 127mm times 92 raised to the power of 36 minus gauge number n divided by 39. Below is a quick guide to help you determine which thickness best suits the needs of your project. Dn mm 0 127 mm 92 36 n 39 0 127mm is the diameter of gauge 36.

10 gauge 3 51 mm stainless steel. Gauge no inch metric. Gauge to mm conversion. Wire cross sectional area calculation the n gauge wire s cross sercional area a n in square millimeters mm 2 is equal to pi divided by 4 times the square wire diameter d in millimeters mm.

There are several different gauge systems used today. Unlike with steel i can t find a set. An mm2 π 4 dn2 swg to mm conversion chart. Gauge when applied to copper brass or silver means a different set of thicknesses however.
