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 30µm 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-030, 8in Precision Electroform Sieve is a top-of-the-line product designed for precision particle sizing operations. This sieve features an 8in (203.2mm) diameter stainless steel frame and is equipped with a nickel cloth formed through electrodeposition. The result is a mesh with very precise square openings, ensuring greater accuracy in particle sizing.
Our Precision Electroformed sieves meet the stringent requirements of ASTM E161, with tolerances of ±2μm. Each sieve is meticulously measured and supplied with a Certificate of Compliance, guaranteeing its quality and accuracy. While the initial price of Electroformed Sieves may be higher than woven wire sieves, their accuracy, efficiency, and size range make them a superior solution for precision particle sizing operations.
The 8in diameter frames come in two stacking heights: 2in (50.8mm) and 1in (25.4mm), while the 3in frames have stacking heights of 3in (76.2mm) and 1in (25.4mm). The Lines Per Inch (LPI) value indicates the number of openings occurring in one linear inch (25.4mm). Higher LPIs offer more precision but are more fragile, while lower LPIs have thicker metal and fewer openings.
This specific model, the 8in (203mm) diameter ASTM Precision Electroformed Test Sieve, is equipped with nickel woven-wire cloth with a 30µm opening size and a half-height stainless steel frame. It is perfect for use with Vibratory Sieve Shakers or Sonic Sifters, particularly when working with very fine powders.
