Hello all, I have modified the format only of Newton's data (hopefully not manipulated). Perhaps someone who buys Röslau from APSCO could take a mic and see which column of numbers their Röslau wire matches the best. Imported Röslau from Jahn, of Germany is always marked on the package in millimeters (.925 mm). The ring of Röslau I bought from APSCO recently just had a gage number (16) on the package, no corresponding diameter in either inches or millimeters. It matched my imported 16 1/2 exactly, in other words, it mic'ed at .950 mm. David Sanderson Littleton, MA pianobiz@juno.com BTW Thanks to Joel Rappaport for helping me find the ö on my keyboard. The answer was Alt button down and 148 on the numbers pad. ______________________________________ American Wire Metric wire Gage .001" mm .001" mm 12 .029" .737mm .0285" .725mm 12.5 .030" .762 .0295 .750 13 .031" .787 .0305 .775 13.5 .032" .813 .0315 .800 14 .033" .838 .0325 .825 14.5 .034" .864 .0335 .850 15 .035" .889 .0344 .875 15.5 .036" .914 .0354 .900 16 .037" .940 .0364 .925 16.5 .038" .965 .0374 .950 17 .039" .991 .0384 .975 17.5 .040" 1.016 .0394 1.000 18 .041" 1.041 .0404 1.025 18.5 .042" 1.063 .0413 1.050 19 .043" 1.092 .0423 1.075 19.5 .044" 1.118 .0433 1.100 20 .045" 1.143 .0443 1.125 20.5 .046" .0453 1.150 21 .047" 1.194 .0463 1.175 21.5 .048" .0472 1.200 22 .049" 1.245 .0482 1.225 23 .050" 1.295 .0512 1.300 23.5 .0531 1.350 24 .053" 1.346 .0551 1.400 24.5 .0571 1.450 25 .055" 1.397 .0591 1.500 26 .0630 1.600 --------- End forwarded message ----------
