There are more than 30 gauges of sheet metal, and each one is determined by the thickness of the material. Gently open the jaws of the caliper. The thickness of the specific material will correspond to the exact gauge of the sheet metal. The three main types of sheet metal material are standard steel, galvanized steel and aluminum. The gauge of the sheet metal varies for each of these three materials, Place one corner of the sheet metal into the caliper jaws and close the jaws all the way. Compare the thickness of the sheet metal to a sheet metal thickness gauge chart. Remember to look up the correct material when you look up the thickness. Hold the digital caliper in your hand. Close the jaws all the way and make sure it registers 0.00 before you begin measuring the sheet metal. If the reading is not 0.00, push the 0.00 or reset button to set the caliper to 0.00. Read the thickness reading and write it down. Repeat this step for the three other corners of the sheet metal.Add all four of the corner thickness readings together, then divide the number by four to get the average thickness of the piece of the sheet metal.
