This 3-5/16” dia double-sided wire gauge wheel measures from 0-36 AWG on one face and from .005" to .325" on the other. Not sure how to use this gauge? Just strip a bit of wire and slide it through the gauge slots, not the holes, until you find the smallest one it'll fit through. It’s for non-ferrous metals, which is pretty much all of what you run across anyway, unless you’re Ferrous Bueller.
