Stainless steel thickness gauge, 1.0 by 2.8 inches, one-sided scale

12G Thickness Gauge 1.0x2.8in

SKU CH-T1Y8-THXDH

A portable stainless-steel gauge measures sheet-metal and wire thickness from 1.0 by 2.8 inches for quick welding checks

  • Quick pocket access speeds up on-site checks
  • Stainless steel resists rust for long service life
  • Compact 1.0×2.8 in size fits any tool pocket
  • One-sided scale gives fast weld-thickness reading
  • Handy wire-gauge aid prevents costly rework

Portable Welding Gauge

This stainless-steel thickness gauge is built for welders and fabricators who need to verify sheet-metal and wire dimensions before starting a job. Its pocket-sized form factor makes it practical for on-site checks and quick material identification.

Sustained Workshop Use

The corrosion-resistant stainless construction holds up to daily exposure to heat, spatter and handling without degrading the etched markings. Repeated measurements stay consistent because the gauge does not flex or wear like thinner reference cards.

Thermal Noise Power

As a purely mechanical inspection tool it generates no heat, draws no power and operates silently. There are no electronic components to fail, so reliability in normal use is limited only by physical damage or loss.

Questions about this item

Does the 12G thickness gauge generate heat or noise during continuous use?

The 12G thickness gauge is a passive stainless steel tool with no moving parts, so it produces no heat and makes no sound while measuring.

What additional tools or accessories are required to use this thickness gauge?

No extra tools are needed; the gauge works standalone for checking wire and sheet thickness before welding.

Can the 12G gauge measure older imperial wire standards alongside metric sheets?

The gauge is marked for popular welding thicknesses and can be applied to any metal sheet or wire that fits within its 1.0 by 2.8 inch measuring area.
