Figuring out the mesh number is simple. All you do is count the number of openings in one linear inch of screen. This count is the mesh number. A 4 mesh screen means there are four little square openings across one inch of screen. A 100 mesh screen has 100 openings per inch, and so on. Note: As the number indicating the mesh size increases, the size of the openings and thus the size of particles captured decreases. Higher mesh numbers = finer particle sizes. It is very important to remember that mesh size is not a precise measurement of particle size.
