Wire gauges for detailing

[BDSchindler]

I know I’ve seen a chart for the correct diameter size wire depending on scale and application (plug wire, radiator, heater hoses, A/C lines, fuel lines, brake lines and so forth) but I’ll be darned if I can find it anywhere!

Anybody here know of one?

I’ve grown tired of ordering 2ft or 3ft of various sizes and looking to buy in bulk.

Hobby Lobby has a lot of various sized bead wire in smaller diameter but like 10 yards for roughly the same price. So I just want the wire diameter size equivalent for the type of detail I’m trying to replicate.

Thanks in advance!

A lot of it is eyeball engineering- does it look right? If you have leftovers that were right, bring them along for a close match.

I use this stuff for plug wires. I have some HDMI and old USB cables that I use for battery cables. That is about as far into wiring as I want to get.
