118 

An electric bass string sold individually is a single string that can be used to replace a worn or broken string on an electric bass.

The number 0.0118 refers to the thickness of the string in inches (or millimeters), which is also known as the gauge. The higher the gauge, the thicker the string and the more powerful the sound.

In general, electric bass strings range in gauge from .045 to .130 inches. A .0118 inch string is considered relatively thin, which may be desirable for certain playing styles or for bassists who prefer a lighter playing feel. However, it can also result in a loss of volume and sound power compared to thicker strings.
