Mesh Size PDF

The document provides a mesh size conversion table that lists various mesh sizes and their approximate micron size, millimeter size, and inch size. It explains that a "+" before a mesh size indicates particles are retained on and larger than that mesh, while a "-" indicates particles pass through and are smaller than that mesh. For example, -325 mesh means particles pass through and are smaller than 44 microns.

Conversion Table

Mesh Size Conversion Table


A “+” before the mesh size indicates the particles are retained on and are larger than the
sieve. A “–” before the mesh size indicates the particles pass through and are smaller
than the sieve. For example, –325 mesh indicates the particles pass through and are
smaller than the openings of a 325 mesh (44 micron) sieve. Typically 90% or more of the
particles will fall within the specified mesh.
