    In the chart below, the gauge is listed to the left followed by the actual size of diameter in millimeters and inches. You can refer to the following recommended usage and choose according to your own needs.

    Gauge MM Inches Usage
    30 0.254 0.010 Great for delicate jewelry, they can be used for wire weaving, bead crochet and fine coils. It can even be used like sewing thread.

    Difference between Ion Plating(IP) and Vacuum Plating

    Electroplating process of our stainless steel jewelry is divided into three kinds, including vacuum ion plating(IP), vacuum plating and water electroplating. For the thickness of layer, it is influenced by the electroplating process and electroplating time, the longer the plating time, the thicker the plating layer is and the longer the color preserve. Below is a brief comparison of ion plating, vacuum plating and water galvanization color durability.
