Mesh Convert Chart

This document provides a conversion chart for mesh size, inches, microns, and millimeters. Mesh size refers to the number of openings in one linear inch of screen, with higher mesh sizes indicating finer material. As mesh size increases, the particle size decreases. Mesh size alone is not a precise measurement of particle size. The chart then lists equivalencies between various mesh sizes, inches, microns, and millimeters to allow for conversions between the different unit measurements.
