Copper Gauge Information

Gauge is a measurement of thickness of the copper material. When it comes to gauge, the lower the number, the thicker the copper.

Why 14 Gauge Matters

At Copper Baths, all of our copper baths, sinks and bowls are made from 14-gauge solid pure copper.

We have specifically selected this gauge because it strikes the perfect balance between strength, durability, weight, function, and design.

What To Ask Before Buying

Before buying a copper product, always make sure you ask about the gauge.

The thinner the gauge, the lower the quality.

Why Thinner Copper Is A Problem

Thinner baths, sinks and bowls can cause a tinny sound when the faucet runs and will be more susceptible to dings and dents from things like pots and pans.

Copper Gauge Comparison

Lower Number, Thicker Copper

In copper manufacturing, a lower gauge number means a thicker and stronger sheet of copper. This is why 14-gauge copper is preferred for premium baths, sinks, and bowls where strength and longevity matter.
