So, it's 18 gauge wire -- how thick and what material is the sheathing?
829432
It is 18 gauge wire that is the thickness measurement. It has a plastic/rubber outer coating. I went to several hardware stores and none of them had the solid wire that was 18 gauge, doorbell wire came the closest but the brittle outside coating would probably not held up. The price for this wire is very competitive, I doubt you will find it anywhere else at this cost.

Laura. This string is very strong, but it is nowhere near 1/8 inch thick. More like 1/32" thick! To get that type of thickness, you are going to have to go to shock cord, or parachute cord. I deal with cording and string all of the time, and I have yet to find any cotton, hemp, or nylon string in that thickness! Here is a link to 1/8 inch string, or cord, here on Amazon.

My wire stripper handles it nicely at either the 18 or 20 gauge setting, but the wire is definitely heavier than the stuff that came with my dog fence. Also, the insulation is heavier and tougher.

At best the it could be 22 gauge but it's probably 24. Also I have no idea what the insulation material is but it is not normal PVC and is pretty stiff and doesn't strip easily.

The gauge is 21awg. The sticker on the reel states 6.0 mm dia. I measured it at .240 inches. This is some of the best wire I have found for the price.

I am not sure because have no clue how thick 16 gauge steel is but i bought and used it on duct work to cut access holes for duct cleaning. Much of the duct work i cut was very old and thick and never i had a problem. I highly recommend you use a drill with an actual electric plug. Cordless drills didnt work well for me.

I think 16 guage is the biggest wire it recommends. I would get something more heavy duty.

Don't know about the individual two wires, but the cable is 0.08 in. thick.

The rope is nylon and about as big as a pencil lead. What gauge that is, I don't know. I like it. If I need more I am buying this stuff. It works great for my outdoor chicken area.

The paddle wire I'd received seemed to be 22 gauge; I ordered only one, however. It may be the case that when you ordered more than one, you revealed a problem the merchant was unaware of -- mispackaged product. 22 gauge is ever and always 22 gauge, it's a standard measurement; if you've got variations in wire thickness, then do send it back with a well-justified complaint, as you've simply NOT received what you'd paid for. Thanks for the question, this is how we the people keep quality up! :)

I don't have means to measure but it is thick, probably 16 or 18 gauge. It is made of steel and very rugged. However it must be thoroughly dried after using, otherwise it may rust. I use mine everyday. Retains heat well.

Not positive but I think it probably is 16 gauge. It has a high tensile strength rating

This is a Solid core wire with two 500 feet rolles. I think the gauge is like 14 or 16. The best quality is that one that you get with this company.

Hi, unfortunately I am at work and can't measure my shed, but if I had to guess I would estimate it is somewhere arround 14-16 gauge. It's tough to know for sure though due to the vinyl coating.

It actually doesn't say the gauge. The cable is thicker than I expected and has a nice webbed sheath on the outside as well. I have cables from some professional cable suppliers and if I had received this cable from them I wouldn't have been disappointed. Better than what you can get at Wally World for sure.

It is a thick wire, thought the plastic coating is somewhat weak. I'm guessing 14 gauge.
