  2. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    American wire gauge. American Wire Gauge (AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important ...

  3. Wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_gauge

    Measuring. In commerce, the sizes of wire are estimated by devices, also called gauges, which consist of plates of circular or oblong form having notches of different widths around their edges to receive wire and sheet metals of different thicknesses. Each notch is stamped with a number, and the wire or sheet, which just fits a given notch, is ...

  4. Standard wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_wire_gauge

    A standard wire gauge. British Standard Wire Gauge (often abbreviated to Standard Wire Gauge or SWG) is a unit for denoting wire size given by BS 3737:1964 (now withdrawn). It is also known as the Imperial Wire Gauge or British Standard Gauge. Use of SWG sizes has fallen greatly in popularity, but they are still used as a measure of thickness ...

  5. Gauge (firearms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(firearms)

    The table below lists various gauge sizes with weights. The bores marked * are found in punt guns, obsolete, or rare weapons only. However, 4 gauge was sometimes found used in blunderbuss guns made for coach defense and protection against piracy. The .410 and 23 mm are exceptions; they are actual bore sizes, not gauges. If the .410 bore and 23 ...

  6. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

    In medicine, the Birmingham gauge specifies the outside diameter of hypodermic needles, catheters, cannulae and suture wires. It was originally developed in early 19th-century England for use in wire manufacture, and began appearing in a medical setting in the early 20th century. Another common needle gauge system is the French catheter scale.

  7. O scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_scale

    The Om gauge (O-22.5 gauge) includes the actual narrow-gauges from 850 to 1250 mm and with it the metric gauge. This applies to both 1:43.4 and 1:45 scale model trains. Metric model railroaders generally use the 0m scale with a gauge of 22.5 mm. The starting point is the NEM standards concerning 0m gauge that were created at the end of the 1950s.

  8. N scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_scale

    N scale is a popular model railway scale. [1] Depending upon the manufacturer (or country), the scale ranges from 1:148 to 1:160. Effectively the scale is 1:159, 9 mm to 1,435 mm (4 ft in), which is the width of standard gauge railway. However the scale may vary to simulate wide or narrow gauge rail.

    Standard gauge (1,435 mm) Russian gauge (1,520 mm) Five foot gauge (1,524 mm) Irish gauge (1,600 mm) Iberian gauge (1,668 mm) Indian gauge (1,676 mm) This list presents an overview of railway track gauges by size. A gauge is measured between the inner faces of the rails. Narrow gauge (1,067 mm)
