Beschrijving
Test sieve 8/2'' MW = #1/4'' ASTM (6,3 mm) is a precision laboratory sieve intended for particle size analysis and sample fractionation. Featuring an 8-inch diameter and 2-inch height, the frame and woven mesh are fabricated from stainless steel to ensure mechanical durability and corrosion resistance during repeated sieving operations. The mesh width corresponds to ASTM #1/4'' (6,3 mm), making the sieve suitable for classifying coarser fractions in materials testing, geology, pharmaceuticals and quality-control laboratories. This configuration from manufacturer Fritsch supports both dry and wet sieving methods when used with compatible sieve shakers. The stainless-steel construction maintains dimensional stability and allows thorough cleaning between runs. Additional size variants of the same sieve type are available, including 200 mm diameter options at different heights, offering flexibility for different sample volumes and instrument platforms. The unit is supplied as a single piece ready for integration into standard laboratory sieving workflows requiring ASTM-compliant mesh openings.
This article is part of Test sieves (wire mesh), in Test sieves & mills.

Questions about test sieve 8/2'' mesh = 1/4'' ASTM (6.3 mm)
What is this article?
test sieve 8/2'' mesh = 1/4'' ASTM (6.3 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 Instrumenten.
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?
The category is Test sieves & mills. The sub-category is Test sieves (wire mesh). The catalogue is Instrumenten.
Shelves beside this one are Test sieves (perforated plate), Mills, grinders & homogenisers, Sieve shakers and Sieve accessories (lids, pans, rings).
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
