Description
Test sieve 400/65 mm MW = #12 ASTM (1,7 mm) is a precision analytical sieve for particle-size determination in laboratory and quality-control environments. It provides a standardised mesh opening of 1,7 mm corresponding to ASTM mesh number 12 and is specified to ASTM E-11-1995. The sieve body measures 400 mm in diameter with a usable height of 65 mm, allowing efficient processing of representative sample volumes during dry or wet sieving. Net weight is 1,6 kg per unit. This configuration supports reproducible fractionation of powders, granules and aggregates when used with compatible sieve shakers. The sieve is offered by manufacturer Fritsch as a single-piece laboratory accessory intended for routine granulometric analysis. Consistent aperture geometry ensures reliable cut points at the stated mesh width, making the unit suitable for research, production monitoring and materials characterisation workflows that require ASTM-compliant sieving results. Its large diameter facilitates handling of bulkier samples while maintaining the dimensional accuracy demanded by analytical sieving protocols.

Questions about test sieve 400/65 mm mesh = #12 ASTM (1.7 mm)
What is this article?
test sieve 400/65 mm mesh = #12 ASTM (1.7 mm) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Fritsch for laboratory use. It sits in Test sieves (wire mesh), inside Test sieves & mills, in Lab instruments.
A wire-mesh test sieve sorts particles through a woven opening of a stated nominal size. The frame diameter and the mesh are the specification. A sieve without a certificate is a screen, not a measurement.
A test sieve sorts particles by whether they pass an opening. Wire mesh and perforated plate are two ways of making that opening, and the nominal size is not a suggestion. A sieve shaker repeats the motion so the result does not depend on how hard someone shook by hand. A mill or grinder makes the particles smaller before they are sieved. The certificate of the sieve, and the opening size, are what an audit asks for. Measurement practice around mass and dimension sits with the BIPM, EURAMET and BELAC.
Which category should I open next?
