The Red Line is a light rail line in Dallas, Texas operated by the Dallas Area Rapid Transit system. It began operations in June 1996, and is one of two inaugural light rail lines in the DART light rail system alongside the Blue Line .
In the U.S., the thickness of sheet metal is commonly specified by a traditional, non-linear measure known as its gauge. The larger the gauge number, the thinner the metal. Commonly used steel sheet metal ranges from 30 gauge to about 7 gauge. Gauge differs between ferrous metals and nonferrous metals such as aluminum or copper. Copper ...
Microscopic close-up of aluminium foil on the back of an intumescent rubber strip. Aluminium foil has a thickness less than 0.2 mm (7.9 mils); thinner gauges down to 6 μm (0.24 mils) are also commonly used. [8] Standard household foil is typically 0.016 mm (0.63 mils) thick, and heavy-duty household foil is typically 0.024 mm (0.94 mils).
The DART light rail system, operated by Dallas Area Rapid Transit, serves portions of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, Texas, United States. The network consists of sixty-five stations on four lines: Blue Line, Green Line, Orange Line and Red Line.
A Gardon gauge or circular-foil gauge is a heat flux sensor primarily intended for the measurement of high-intensity radiation. It is a sensor that is designed to measure the radiation flux density (in watts per metre squared) from a field of view of 180 degrees.
Tin foil, also spelled tinfoil, is a thin foil made of tin. Tin foil was superseded after World War II by cheaper and more durable [ 1 ] aluminium foil , which is still referred to as "tin foil" in many regions (an example of a misnomer ).
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 ...
A foil is a very thin sheet of metal, typically made by hammering or rolling. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Foils are most easily made with malleable metal, such as aluminium , copper , [ 3 ] tin , and gold . Foils usually bend under their own weight and can be torn easily. [ 2 ]
