Gauge is the term that comes to mind, such as 12 gauge (ga.) wire. With plastic bags, one might use mil, such as a 3 mil garbage bag. "Mil" indicates thousandths of an inch.
1 mil = 0.0254 millimeters4 mil = 0.1016 millimeters

A 4 mil thickness is four thousandths (0.004) of an inch.
1 mile= 63,360 inches 4 miles= 253,440 inches
The ratio of gauge to mil in plastic thickness is 1 gauge = 0.1 mil. This means that for every 1 gauge increase, the thickness increases by 0.1 mils.
Convert gauge to mil
6 mil is thicker than 4 mil.

yes, 4 mil = 4 thou, 10 mil = 10 thou

Gauge and mil refer to the thickness of the liner. To find the thickness when listed by gauge ask for the type of material and check for the converted value ( ie a 10 gauge liner may equate to perhaps a 0.14 inch thickness material , 8 gauge may be 0.12 inches etc ) The mil value usually refers to a millimeter thickness (ie 15 mil should be thicker than a 10 mil ) >KEEP IN MIND THAT THE MIL NUMBER IS NOT IN INCHES , so make sure what the mil value is given in millimeters or inches then you can compare the different thicknesses. If the pool dealer doesnt know the difference you may want to find another dealer
The 1 Mil is equivalent to 0.001 inch. The higher the mil the thicker that product would be. So, 4 mil is thicker than 3 mil.
