What gauge or thickness is the steel?

I think it is about 12 gauge, or a little more than 2mm. It heats up pretty fast, but seems to retain heat well during stir frying.

7 gauge steel is 0.1875 inches (4.76 mm). This thing is *thick* and you shouldn't worry about warping if you don't pour water on it hot or do something else that would change temperature quickly and unevenly. I can throw mine on a bed of coals or place it on my gas stove and it stays flat as new. I always let it cool slowly on it's own. This is no thin cheap pan - There's a lot of steel in this US made griddle. Once heated, cooking is like a commercial griddle. You can cook bacon, eggs, pancakes, and hashbrowns all on one griddle. Very smart purchase.

Just by eyeballing mine in the garage (can't find my measuring tape), it looks to be about half inch thick. Can't answer on 550 being better than 500, but I can tell you that mine has been holding up to 5.56 62gr steel core. It doesn't make big dimples in the plate, just tiny little indentations where you can see which rounds were steel core.

Sorry, I have no way to measure thickness. Try contacting the manufacturer and/or distributer.

Don't know the gauge but it is plenty heavy enough for household use. No issues in the 6 months wehavehadours

In Inches the 16 Gauge stainless is .0625", which converts to 1.5. This is 25% thicker than 18 gauge stainless. Stainless Steel gauge vs Aluminum gauge vs non stainless steel gauge is all different.According to Kraus, their 16 Gauge product is listed as 1.5MM

its steel, but don't know what gauge it is, you can't pull it open if that helps. its a very solid safe, I am very happy with mine. I Hope this helps you in your findings.

I don't know the specific thickness, but they are pretty thick and strong. The quality is outstanding. I could not have been happier with them.

I believe it's steel, but suggest you contact the manufacturer to confirm that.

It's made of steel but I don't know what gage. Fairly heavy duty but if someone wanted to get in they could pry it open but it would take some time.

I don't know the gauge but the top lip is slightly thicker than the sides. I use this as an insert to a raised masonry fire pit and it fit perfectly. The heat isn't warping it. If I needed to guess the thickness is approx. 3 to 4 millimeters .

Sorry, Brian, I do not know the gauge. They are the heavy steel staples, not the light aluminum kind. I think the website gives the gauge.

I don't know the exact thickness, but the thickness is adequate. It cracks along the seams rather quickly, so I do not recommend it.

I believe they are 16 gauge stainless steel which is better than 18 gauge. Very sturdy and sharp. excellent value. pull the trigger. you won't be sorry.

I don't know what guage it is but it is considerably thicker than the steel on a "tin" can for food, etc. It's quite sturdy.

Yes this is correct. The steel is 0.6mm thick. The difference is that you are looking at a small pencil lead whereas this is sheet metal. It is not as thin as you may be thinking.

it's advertised as steel. it's kinda on the heavy/solid side so i'm gonna say steel as well.
