22G
That's 1.39× as thick as a 25 G vaccination needle, while a 21 G blood-test needle is 1.14× thicker. That is about 10.26 times the thickness of a human hair.
Convert the other way: G to mm
What it means
How thick is that needle?
Nominal outer diameters from the ISO 9626 table. Thin-wall and regular-wall needles of the same gauge share the outside diameter but differ inside.
The math
How to convert mm to G
Gauge is a table, not a formula: 21 G = 0.819 mm, 23 G = 0.642 mm, and values between gauges are interpolated.
Example: 0.718 mm = 22 G.
