    The most common materials for corrugated iron are ferrous alloys (e.g. stainless steels), aluminium and copper. Regular ferrous alloys are the most common due to price and availability. Common sizes of corrugated material can range from a very thin 30 gauge (0.012 inches, 0.3 mm) to a relatively thick 6 gauge (0.1943 inches, 5 mm). Thicker or ...

    AWG is colloquially referred to as gauge and the zeros in thick wire sizes are referred to as aught / ˈ ɔː t /. Wire sized 1 AWG is referred to as "one gauge" or "No. 1" wire; similarly, thinner sizes are pronounced "x gauge" or "No. x" wire, where x is the positive-integer AWG number. Consecutive AWG wire sizes thicker than No. 1 wire are ...
