What are the standard sieve sizes?
Particle Size Conversion
Sieve Designation | Nominal Sieve Opening | |
---|---|---|
Standard | Mesh | Inches |
6.35mm | 1/4 in. | 0.250 |
5.66mm | No. 3 1/2 | 0.223 |

What is sieve number?
A number used to designate the size of a sieve, usually the approximate number of sieve cross wires per linear inch.
What is the sieve size of coarse aggregate?
Coarse aggregate means the aggregate which is retained on 4.75mm sieve when it is sieved through 4.75mm. To find fineness modulus of coarse aggregate we need sieve sizes of 80mm, 40mm, 20mm, 10mm, 4.75mm, 2.36mm, 1.18mm, 0.6mm, 0.3mm and 0.15mm.
What is No 40 sieve?
The No. 40 mesh is a medium size U.S. Standard mesh size with a 0.0165″ (425μm) nominal sieve opening with a typical wire diameter of 0.28mm. Die-formed frames assure a proper fit, superior quality and performance, guaranteeing that the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) specifications are always met.
What size is a #200 sieve?
8″ diameter
8in (203mm) diameter ASTM E11 Test Sieve is constructed with a No. 200 (75µm) stainless steel woven-wire cloth opening size, and a full-height stainless steel frame. The overall height is 2-5/8in and the stacked height is 2-1/8in.
What is a 200 sieve?
200) sieve. Gravel: Material passing a 75-mm (3-inch) sieve and retained on a 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve. Coarse Gravel: Material passing a 75-mm (3-inch) sieve and retained on a 19.0-mm (3/4-inch) sieve. Fine Gravel: Material passing a 19.0-mm (3/4-inch) sieve and retained on a 4.75-mm (No.
Is sieve sizes for sieve analysis?
Sieve analysis helps to determine the particle size distribution of the coarse and fine aggregates. i) A set of IS Sieves of sizes – 80mm, 63mm, 50mm, 40mm,31.5mm, 25mm, 20mm, 16mm, 12.5mm, 10mm, 6.3mm,4.75mm, 3.35mm, 2.36mm, 1.18mm, 600µm, 300µm, 150µm and 75µm.
