Welcome to our guide on determining the thickness of your metal sign. We understand that navigating through different options can be a bit overwhelming, so we're here to provide clarity on this matter.
Metal Options: 16 Gauge
When it comes to thickness, we offer 16 gauge. The gauge refer to the thickness of the sheet metal used in crafting your sign.
Understanding Gauge Thickness
Gauge thickness is the standard measurement unit for sheet metals. To simplify, the gauge number correlates with the thickness of the material - the higher the number, the thinner the metal. For instance, 16 gauge carbon steel measures approximately .0598 inches thick (1.518 mm). 18 gauge steel is 0.0478 inches thick, making 16 gauge steel thicker and more durable
Choosing the Right Gauge
It's essential to consider your preferences and needs when selecting the gauge for your metal sign. Generally, 16 gauge steel is thicker and more durable. If you're looking for added durability and longevity, 16 gauge may be the ideal choice for you.
