A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
Cold rolled steel sheet standard thickness.
The gauge number 18 holds no relevance to the actual measurements.
When working with sheet metal the term gauge is often used.

The material is cooled by the use of oil which also acts as a lubricant during the rolling process.
Gague are used to specify the thickness of a metal sheet.
As the metal sheet gets thinner between the rolls its speed increases.
We work with nominal thicknesses so it s important to know the thickness tolerance on the material you chose in order to know if the final product will be suitable for your application.
