14 Gauge Galvanized Wire
14 Gauge Galvanized wire is a galvanized steel or iron wire with a diameter of approximately 2.03 millimeters. It has excellent rust resistance and durability and has applications in multiple fields. In the wire industry, the larger the gauge number, the thinner the wire. The Gauge is a unit used to describe the thickness of iron wire. Wanzhi Steel has 9ga, 11ga, 12ga, 14ga, and 16ga galvanized wire, stainless steel wire, and alloy wire to choose from. For bulk orders, we will offer huge discounts.

To achieve the desired wire diameter, the baling wire is drawn through a heavy-duty bull-block continuous wire drawing machine that incrementally stretches and thins the wire. Finally, the wire is air-cooled to promote a homogeneous crystalline structure and ensure consistent tensile strength.
Wanzhi Steel has a large stock of GA 14 galvanized wire. We also have a wide range of processing services.
We have been focusing on quality manufacturing for 13 years and are worthy of your trust!
14 gauge galvanized wire meaning
It refers to galvanized iron wire with a thickness of 0.074 inches, appearing silver gray or silver white, usually written as 14 ga steel wire or gi wire 14 gauge. Over time, it can withstand environmental issues well.
The twisted 14 gauge galvanized steel wire rope performs well in aerospace applications. It performs best in the following applications: CNC machining, fasteners, fences, erosion control, POP displays, and decks. We provide various value-added processes for this type of wire, including straightening and cutting, welding wire forming, and forming wire products.
We also provide 10ga galvanized steel wire. More information can be found on our website.
How thick is a 14 gauge?
Taking carbon steel sheet as an example:
Thickness | ||
Gauge | in | mm |
12 | 0.1046 | 2.657 |
13 | 0.0897 | 2.278 |
14 | 0.0747 | 1.897 |
The thickness of 14 gauge plates made of different materials varies, for example:
Material | Inch | mm |
14 gauge stainless steel sheet thickness | 0.0781 | 1.984 |
14 ga aluminium sheet thickness | 0.0641 | 1.628 |
14 gauge carbon steel sheet thickness | 0.0747 | 1.897 |
14 ga galvanized sheet thickness | 0.0785 | 1.994 |
14 gauge copper sheet thickness | 0.083 | 2.108 |
14 ga brass sheet thickness | 0.06408 | 1.628 |
How is it made?
Firstly, the low-carbon steel wire rod is drawn to form a steel wire with a diameter of 0.064 inches or 1.63 millimeters. Then, after acid washing, annealing, and other steps, the steel wire is immersed in a molten zinc bath or coated with a zinc layer on its surface by ionization, forming a No. 14 galvanized steel wire with good corrosion resistance.
GI binding wire 14 gauge
Binding wire is a type of iron wire used to secure steel bars or fence brackets. 14 ga binding wire, which has been galvanized, can effectively resist external erosion. For example, in concrete buildings, cement pouring, horticultural design, and fixing greenhouse brackets in farmland, it needs to come into contact with soil Galvanizing treatment permanently covers its surface with a protective layer, which is a widely used anti-corrosion process.

13 gauge vs. 14 gauge wire
If all conditions are the same, thicker wires are stronger than thinner wires (for example, a 13 gauge wire is stronger than a 14 gauge wire).
13 gauge galvanized wire | 14 gauge galvanized wire | |
thickness | 0.088-0.090 inches | 0.077-0.079 inches |
tensile strength | 80000 – 180000 psi, depending on wire type | 70000 – 110000 psi, depending on wire type |
Load intensity | 509-604 pounds | 402-478 pounds |
application | Recycling: Packaging cardboard, plastic, aluminum, thin paper. | Recycling: Packaging cardboard, plastic, aluminum, office paper. |
The metal wire of gauge 13 is 0.011 inches thicker than the metal wire of gauge 14 and has higher tensile strength and load strength. The metal wire of GA 14 is used to pack lighter and denser materials.

Comparison table of steel wire gauges & diameters
The diameter of a given specification of wire may vary depending on the material and manufacturing specifications. For example, the 14th galvanized wire in an AWG system will have a specific diameter, but due to different physical properties, the diameter of copper, steel, or aluminum wire may vary.
The American Wire Gauge (AWG) system is the primary wire gauge system in North America, while the British Standard Wire Gauge (SWG) is more commonly used in the UK and some other countries.
