Mesh Size Chart
Mesh size refers to the measurement of the openings in a mesh or screen. It is typically used to describe the size of particles or granules that can pass through the openings.
The mesh size is usually specified as the number of openings per linear inch or millimeter. For example, a mesh size of 100 means there are 100 openings per linear inch. The smaller the mesh size, the finer the particles that can pass through.
