Millimeters to sieve mesh
Type a value in mm to get it in mesh instantly.
15.24mesh
That's 2.9× as coarse as medium sand, while gravel is 4× coarser. That is sand: individual grains you can see.
Convert the other way: mesh to mm
What it means
What is that material?
Class boundaries follow the Wentworth scale. Mesh numbers are approximate: sieve standards differ between countries.
The math
How to convert mm to mesh
Mesh counts the openings per inch of sieve, allowing for the thickness of the wire: mesh ≈ 15.2 ÷ mm. Sieve standards differ between countries, so treat it as a close guide rather than an exact figure.
Example: 1 mm = 15.24 mesh.

The units
About these units
Millimeters (mm)
The plain diameter of a grain.
Sieve mesh (mesh)
Openings per inch of sieve. A higher mesh number passes finer material.
