As the gauge number increases the material thickness decreases.
A sheet metal gauge sometimes spelled gage indicates the standard thickness of sheet metal for a specific material.
This is known as the manufacturers standard.
The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material.
