Frequently Asked Questions

1. What Is The Retsch Test Sieve, 200 x 25 mm, 1.70 mm Woven Wire Mesh Used For?

It is used to separate and classify dry or wet particulate materials by size, most commonly to measure particle size distribution during quality control, incoming goods inspection and research. Particles larger than the 1.70 mm woven wire mesh aperture are retained while finer material passes through.

2. Why Is The Sieve Made From Stainless Steel Woven Wire Mesh?

Stainless steel woven wire mesh resists corrosion and wear, so both the frame and the mesh hold a stable, accurate aperture across repeated use. This supports consistent results and makes the sieve suitable for wet sieving as well as dry material.

3. What Are The Frame Dimensions And Mesh Aperture?

The frame is 200 mm in diameter and 25 mm high, with a nominal woven wire mesh aperture of 1.70 mm to ISO 3310-1. The half-height 25 mm frame is useful where sample volumes are small or where more sieves need to fit within a shaker's clamping range.

4. Will This Sieve Fit A Standard Sieve Shaker?

Yes. The 200 mm diameter is an industry-standard format that fits 200 mm sieve shakers, including the Retsch AS 200 range, and it can be nested with other 200 mm sieves to build a full analysis stack with a lid and collector pan.

5. Are These Sieves Available To Other Standards Such As ASTM E11?

Yes. Alongside this ISO 3310-1 model, woven mesh sieves are also available to ASTM E11 in frame diameters of 100, 200 / 203 (8 inch), 300, 400 and 450 mm, with mesh sizes from 125 mm down to 20 µm. Perforated plate sieves are also available to ISO 3310-2 / ISO 5223 in frame diameters of 200, 305 and 400 mm, with aperture sizes from 125 mm down to 1 mm. Choose the ISO 3310-1 woven mesh format shown here for fine to coarse particle sizing to the ISO standard; select ASTM E11 where your method or accreditation specifies it, or perforated plate where larger apertures and robust screening are required.
