	Stubs Iron Wire Gauge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Stubs Iron Wire Gauge system (also known as the Birmingham Wire Gauge) is used in medicine to measure the diameter of hypodermic needles, catheters, and suture wires.
		It was originally developed in early 19th-century England for use in wire manufacture, and it began appearing in a medical setting in the early 20th century.
		Needle Wire gauge was derived from the Stubs Iron Wire Gauge.

	Definition of Wire Gauge from dictionary.net
		Gauge point, the diameter of a cylinder whose altitude is one inch, and contents equal to that of a unit of a given measure; -- a term used in gauging casks, etc.
		Salt gauge, or Brine gauge, an instrument or contrivance for indicating the degree of saltness of water from its specific gravity, as in the boilers of ocean steamers.
		Wire gauge, a gauge for determining the diameter of wire or the thickness of sheet metal; also, a standard of size.

	Birmingham
		Birmingham has 35 miles (60 km) of canals within the city boundaries, of which most are navigable; the canals were once the lifeblood of the city's industries during the Industrial Revolution but are now used mainly for pleasure.
		Birmingham is served by a number of major roads such as, the M6 motorway, the M40, the M5, the M42 motorway and the M6 Toll.
		Birmingham's earliest food trade connections with the West Indies involved the importation of limes and cocoa during the mid to late 1800's which was used as a source of Vitamin C to prevent scurvy among seafearers.

	Woven Wire Mesh Glossary of Terms
		Wire cloth (wire mesh) in which the direction of a twilled weave is reversed at regular intervals to produce a striped or herringbone effect.
		Wire cloth in which the interlocking crimps are on the underside of the screen in addition to shallow formed crimps that are shaped in a downward angle in relation to the top surface.
		Each warp wire and each weft wire passes over and under the next to adjacent complementary wires, as in a normal "twill weave", except the warp wires are larger in diameter than the weft wires.

	Woven Wire Mesh Glossary 03
		Wire cloth that has been passed through a set of heavy rollers to reduce the thickness of the cloth or to flatten the wires at weave intersections providing a smooth surface.
		Wire mesh filter discs are often coined around the edges, locking the wires together to prevent unraveling.
		Wire mesh in a flat-top weave with a high percentage of open area, utilized for livestock flooring.

	Gauge Definition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The term gage or gauge actually comes from the technology to standardize and extablish a means to control all sizes and weights to a central location.
		The term "gauge" refers to the measurement of wire with a go-no go type gauge being used to determine the size of the wire.
		Birmingham Wire Gauge (BWG), used prior to 1884, also referred to as Stubbs, was used to gauge wire used in pianos, and was developed to differentiate between Birmingham made wire (considered stronger) than the German made product.

	American Wire Gauge, AWG Cable Size Description for Aluminum Wire Cable
		The Birmingham Wire Gauge [BWG] is used for steel armor wire.
		The wire fusing [melting] current is based on the material the wire is made of, the diameter of the wire and the melting point of the the material.
		The wire fusing current of a wire is provided in tables as constant current or as [a larger] current for some given amount of time.

	WIRE MESH GAUGE DIAMETERS
		Many European weavers utilize the SWG gauge standard although the wire mesh weaving industry is moving toward global standardization by avoiding the confusing use of gauge specifications altogether.
		Much confusion has resulted from the use of gauge numbers, in ordering wire cloth or wire mesh it is preferable to state the exact dimensions in decimal fractions of an inch or a millimeter.
		The decimal method of indicating wire diameters has the advantage of being self-explanatory, whereas arbitrary gauge numbers are not.

		Some ideas for using the gauge plate to measure or at least estimate insulation thickness as well as instructions for use are given at the page bottom.
		This is an anomaly caused by the 1959 Metrication revision.
		The wire should exhibit a 'light dragging fit' in the slot itself (where I have indicated in red) and this drag should disappear as the wire enters the hole.

		In this country (Britain) we chiefly use the Standard Wire Gauge (S.W.G.) sometimes refered to as the British Imperial Wire Gauge, Birmingham Gauge (B.G.), also known as the Stubs' Iron Wire Gauge, and Stubs' Steel Wire Gauge.
		The former, which, as stated, is also known as the Birmingham Gauge is used to designate Stubs'soft wire sizes, whilst Stubs' Steel Wire Gauge is the one employed in measuring drawn steel wire or drill rod of Stubs' make.
		The Birmingham Wire Gauge must not be confused with the Birmingham Gauge.
