No its bigger. The smaller the gauge the thicker it is

In gauge sizing, a lower number represents a larger diameter. Therefore, an 18 gauge nose ring has a larger diameter than a 19 gauge nose ring.
To measure the inside diameter of a ring using a vernier caliper, you can gently open the jaws of the caliper, place them inside the ring, and then slowly close the jaws until they fit snugly against the inner circumference of the ring. Take the reading from the main scale and vernier scale where they align. This will give you the inside diameter measurement of the ring.
To measure a curtain ring, you would typically measure the diameter of the inner circle on the ring. This measurement will help you determine the size of the curtain rod or pole that the ring will fit onto.
The "D" on a piston ring typically indicates the cylinder bore diameter for which the ring is intended. The "N" refers to the ring's position on the piston, such as top, middle, or oil control ring. Together, "D N" specifies the ring's size and location within the engine.
The moment of inertia of a solid disc is smaller than that of a ring because the mass in a disc is distributed closer to the axis of rotation, resulting in less resistance to changes in angular velocity. In a ring, the mass is distributed farther from the axis, increasing the moment of inertia.
The smaller pure gold ring will have a higher density than the larger one due to its smaller volume and higher mass. Density is a ratio of mass to volume, so as the volume decreases and the mass remains constant, the density increases.
