NOTE 1Complete instructions and procedures on the use and calibration of testing sieves are contained in Manual 32.2 Note that sieve analysis
results from two testing sieves of the same sieve designation may not be
the same because of the variances in sieve opening permitted by this
specification. To minimize the differences in sieve analysis results, the use
of testing sieves matched on a performance basis is suggested. Manual 322
also contains a list of all published ASTM standards on sieve analysis
procedures for specific materials or industries. This list may be referenced
to obtain statements of precision and bias for sieve analysis of specific
materials.
NOTE 2For other types of sieves, see Specification E 323 and
Specification E 161.

1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers the requirements for design
and construction of testing sieves using a medium of woven
wire cloth mounted in a frame for use in testing for the
classification of materials according to designated particle size
(See Note 1 and Note 2), and wire cloth, meeting the
specifications of Table 1, to be designated test grade wire cloth.
All subsequent references to wire cloth shall mean test grade
wire cloth. Methods for checking testing sieves and wire cloth
for conformance to this specification are included in the annex.

5.3 Nonstandard FramesOther sieve frames may be either square, rectangular, or circular. The frame may have the
sieve cloth permanently installed, or may be designed to permit
replacement. The provisions of 5.1 apply.
NOTE 4While there are no requirements for nesting of nonstandard
sieve frames, care should be applied in use to prevent loss of material
during analysis.
5.4 Pans and CoversPans and covers for use with sieves
shall be made so as to nest with the sieves. Pans with extended
rims (stacking skirts) shall be furnished when specified. The
pans and covers shall conform to the dimensions in Table 2.
6. Product Marking
6.1 Each test sieve shall bear a label marked with the
following information:
6.1.1 U.S.A. standard testing sieve,
6.1.2 This designation (ASTM E 11),
6.1.3 Standard sieve designation (from Table 1, Column 1),
6.1.4 Name of manufacturer or distributor, and
6.1.5 Alternative sieve designation (from Table 1, Column
2) (optional).
6.1.6 Each test sieve shall bear a unique serial number
permanently engraved or etched onto the sieve frame, skirt or
nameplate.

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS
The following supplementary requirements shall apply only when specified by the purchaser in the
contract or order.
S2. Government Procurement
S2.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the materials shall be packaged in accordance with the suppliers
standard practice that will be acceptable to the carrier at lowest
rates. Containers and packing shall comply with the Uniform
Freight Classification rules or National Motor Freight Classification rules. Marking for shipment of such materials shall be
in accordance with Fed. Std. No. 123 for civil agencies, and
MIL-STD-129 for military agencies.

A1. TEST METHODS FOR CHECKING WIRE CLOTH AND TESTING SIEVES TO DETERMINE
WHETHER THEY CONFORM TO SPECIFICATION
A1.4 Test Method ThreeDetermination of the Size Distribution of Wire Cloth OpeningsTo establish the size distribution of sieve openings, determine the frequency of opening
size measurements using the following procedures:
A1.4.1 For samples (testing sieves or wire cloth) with 30 or
less openings, measure all full openings. For samples with over
30 openings, measure a minimum of 30 full openings.
A1.4.2 Select openings in a line or lines diagonal to the
direction of the wires according to Fig. A1.1, and measure ten
adjacent openings along each line. When greater numbers of
openings are available, choose the fields in such a manner that
none of the openings being measured overlap.
A1.4.3 Measurement of the Average Opening Size
Measure the average opening as the distance between
parallel wires (measured at the center of the openingsee Fig.
1) in both directions, being sure to keep the x and y measurements separate. Once the opening data is tabulated, check the
data versus the prescribed limits in Table 1.
