Steel Tube Wall Thickness Gauge

You can see by the chart at the right not all 12 gauge allows a thickness between 0 101 to 0 111.

Steel tube wall thickness gauge.

Square steel tubing wall thickness ranges from 1 8 inch also known as 11 gauge to 5 8 inch thick. 0 01 in 4 0 016 in 5 0 02 in 33 0 028 in 39. For example while 6 by 6 inch steel tubing comes in both 5 8 and 1 2 inch thickness 5 1 2 by 5 1 2 does not. The wall thickness of tubing is measured in inches 0035 or by standard gauge from 7 heaviest to 22 lightest which correspond to a range of wall thicknesses.
