Question:

Sometimes I’ve noticed that wire is sold by decimal measurement. Is there a conversion chart to establish the gauge?

Answer:

Hi Sue, the decimal measurement refers to millimeters. Our Wire Conversion Table can help (scroll down to the bottom chart). This chart can also help when purchasing beads and you need a specific sized hole.
