8in Diameter ASTM Precision Electroformed Sieves
Electroformed sieve frames are stainless steel 8in (203.2mm) or 3in (76.2mm) diameter, full or half-height sieves. The Precision Electroformed cloth used in them is formed by electrodeposition of nickel compound to a base grid to form a mesh with very precise square openings.
All Precision Electroformed sieves meet the requirements of ASTM E161, with tolerances of ±2μm. Each sieve is measured and supplied with a Certificate of Compliance. While the initial price of Electroformed Sieves is substantially higher than woven wire sieves, their accuracy, efficiency and size range often make them a better solution for precision particle sizing operations.
Stacking heights for 8in diameter frames are 2in (50.8mm) and 1in (25.4mm). For 3in frames, stacking heights are 3in (76.2mm) and 1in (25.4mm). The Lines Per Inch (LPI) value in the Specifications Tab indicates the number of openings occurring in one linear inch (25.4mm). Higher LPIs are more fragile while low LPIs have thicker metal, but fewer openings.
8in (203mm) diameter ASTM Precision Electroformed Test Sieve has nickel woven-wire cloth with 53µm opening size and half height stainless steel frame.
Works well for very fine powders when used with Vibratory Sieve Shakers or Sonic Sifters.

The Gilson V8EH-053 is an 8in Precision Electroform Sieve, specifically designed for precision particle sizing operations. This sieve features a stainless steel frame with a nickel cloth, resulting in a mesh with very precise square openings. The mesh is formed through the process of electrodeposition of a nickel compound onto a base grid.
These Precision Electroformed sieves meet the strict requirements of ASTM E161, with tolerances of ±2μm. Each sieve is carefully measured and supplied with a Certificate of Compliance, ensuring its accuracy and reliability. While the initial price of Electroformed Sieves may be higher compared to woven wire sieves, their superior accuracy, efficiency, and size range make them the ideal solution for precision particle sizing.
The stacking heights for the 8in diameter frames are available in 2in (50.8mm) and 1in (25.4mm) options, while the 3in frames come in 3in (76.2mm) and 1in (25.4mm) options. The Lines Per Inch (LPI) value, indicated in the Specifications Tab, determines the number of openings per linear inch (25.4mm). Higher LPIs offer higher precision but are more fragile, whereas lower LPIs have thicker metal but fewer openings.
The Gilson V8EH-053 sieve has an 8in (203mm) diameter and features a nickel woven-wire cloth with a 53µm opening size. It is equipped with a half-height stainless steel frame.
This sieve is the perfect choice for working with very fine powders, especially when used in conjunction with Vibratory Sieve Shakers or Sonic Sifters. It offers greater accuracy of ±2µm compared to traditional woven wire sieves, making it an excellent option for demanding precision particle sizing operations.
