The Gilson 3in Sieve is a non-metallic test sieve designed specifically for special applications. These 3in (76mm) diameter sieves are hand-made using a clear and durable polycarbonate frame, ensuring durability and longevity. The frame assembly is secured with heat-cured acrylic cement and silicone sealant, guaranteeing a strong and reliable construction. To enhance performance, an elastic polylefin band covers the frame joint, providing an effective seal when nesting.
One of the key features of these sieves is their transparency. The clear frames allow for easy visual monitoring of specimen performance during separation or liquid levels during wet-sieving operations. This feature proves to be incredibly beneficial in ensuring accurate and efficient results.
Measuring approximately 1-3/4in (45mm) in overall height and 1-1/4in (32mm) when stacked, these sieves have a convenient and compact design. With a 2-7/8in (73mm) inside diameter, they do not nest with standard metallic sieves, making them a unique and versatile addition to your collection.
The 3in (76mm) diameter Non-Metallic Test Sieve comes with a woven polyester cloth with a No. 500 (25µm) opening size and a polycarbonate frame. The polyester mesh, along with the polycarbonate frame, ensures durability and accuracy during testing.
In addition to their high-quality construction, these sieves offer several practical features. They are autoclavable and microwaveable, allowing for quick and efficient drying. Additionally, all ASTM Test Sieves come with a Certificate of Compliance, ensuring their conformity to industry standards.
Included with the product is a 3in (76mm) Non-Metallic Test Sieve with a polyester mesh and No. 500 (25µm) opening size. To further enhance your sieving experience, various accessories are available, such as sieve pans, sieve pans with drains for wet-sieving applications, 3/8in vinyl tubing, extended-rim pans, and sieve covers.
