| |
| EXAMPLE 1 |
| Assume the following: |
| A mesh count of 30 |
| A wire diameter of
0.013" |
| |
| 1 |
|
Divide 1 by the
mesh count (M) |
1
/ 30 = 0.033333 |
| 2 |
|
Subtract wire
diameter (D) from step 1 |
0.033333 - 0.013 = 0.020333 |
| 3 |
|
The answer to step
2 is your opening in inches |
Opening = 0.020333" |
| |

| |
| EXAMPLE 2 |
| Assume the following: |
| A mesh count of 250 |
| A wire diameter of
0.0016" |
| |
| 1 |
|
Divide 1 by the
mesh count (M) |
1
/ 250 = 0.0040 |
| 2 |
|
Subtract wire
diameter (D) from step 1 |
0.0040 - 0.0016 = 0.0024 |
| 3 |
|
The answer to step
2 is your opening in inches |
Opening = 0.0024" |
