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 32µm 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-032 is an 8-inch precision electroform sieve that is designed to meet the requirements of ASTM E161. This sieve is constructed with a stainless steel frame and features a precision electroformed cloth that has been formed by electrodeposition of nickel compound. The result is a mesh with very precise square openings, ensuring accurate particle sizing operations.
One of the key advantages of the V8EH-032 is its high level of accuracy. With a tolerance of ±2 micrometers, this sieve offers greater precision compared to traditional woven wire sieves. It is an ideal choice for applications that require the sizing of very fine powders. When used with vibratory sieve shakers or sonic sifters, this sieve consistently delivers reliable and accurate results.
The V8EH-032 comes equipped with a half-height stainless steel frame that measures 8 inches in diameter. It features a nickel woven-wire cloth with an opening size of 32 micrometers, making it suitable for a wide range of particle sizes. Each sieve is carefully measured and supplied with a Certificate of Compliance, ensuring its accuracy and compliance with industry standards.
In addition to the sieve itself, the V8EH-032 also includes a Certificate of Compliance. This document serves as a reliable reference standard when calibrated with glass beads or other reference materials.
To enhance the functionality of the V8EH-032, a range of accessories is available. These include the V8SHXPN 8-inch all stainless sieve pan, which is designed to collect fines passing through the bottom sieve. The V8SHXPE 8-inch all stainless extended rim pan, on the other hand, fits between sieves to collect fines from the top sieves. To prevent sample loss or contamination, the V8SFXCV 8-inch all stainless sieve cover can be used. Alternatively, the V8SFXCR 8-inch all stainless sieve cover with ring is used with 8-inch pans to ensure sample integrity.
Overall, the Gilson V8EH-032 8-inch precision electroform sieve is a reliable and accurate tool for precision particle sizing operations. Its stainless steel frame, precision electroformed cloth, and adherence to industry standards make it a top choice for professionals in various industries.
