Ft usually express the outside diameter as the depth.
The inside diameter is the outside diameter minus twice the wire thickness
inside diameter = 5mm depth - 2 x (0.3 + 0.2 +0.2) = 3.6
So the inside diameter is probably 3.5mm
I'm confused by this equation. On the container it says 0.3*0.8+32GA. Why isn't 0.8mm in the equation and why are there two 0.2mm?
I've not bought these particular coils, but I've bought this brand before. They're generally 3.5mm-4mm, so I'm sure the equation is right, I'm just not sure why. If I'm going to be using this equation in the future, I need to know which values to put where, etc.
Why isn't the 0.8mm considered part of the wire's thickness? Why is the 32GA doubled in the equation, if that is in fact where the 0.2mm is coming from?
I appreciate any help anyone can offer in explaining this to me. Since not all pre-made coils have the Inner Diameter mentioned somewhere in the Discussion Area/Forums, I need to learn to figure it out on my own.
