Tyler Mesh Size
One well-known mesh series is the Tyler Equivalent created by the W.S. Tyler screening company. Tyler mesh size is the number of openings per (linear) inch of mesh. To calculate the size of the openings in a mesh the thickness of the wires making up the mesh material must be taken into account. In practice, mesh openings are determined referring to a chart like the one below. Mesh size given as 4x4 means the number of squares in one inch horizontally is 4 and vertically is 4.
