What is the pore size in microns (indicator of the smallest size of particles/ allergens that can't pass through)?

I read that it is in the range of 2 to 10 microns to catch dust mites and their allergens.

The cloth bag at the top is the filter and the bottom one is the collector bag. I don't know the micron size but it lets very little dust out of the system. I also have an air filter that turn over air in shop 8 times per hour. I do not think there are any filter options on the shop fox or on any other brand.

I can't verify the information, but 12 micron (as reported by Diane M) is equal to 0.47 mil (0.012mm = 0.00047 inches)

The documentation that came with the filter states "minimum particle size filtered is 450 microns". That would make it between 35-40 mesh according to the conversion chart I am looking at.

I believe it is 5 microns.It's the mask use in surgeries and the one use during the Avian Flu.As a heart transplant patient, it is the one the surgical team uses during surgery.Be aware that when wearing it, you do get hot and may perspire.

They were an exact fit replacement for my original Hayward filters. I don't know the micron size but they clean as well if not better than the originals. I recommend them..

I don't have a micrometer to give exact but the grains are course and large. The mixture does create a fine dust so be prepared.

A company representative informed me that it filters 100% of that particles. Their website says "99%" of particles. Another company representative said that it was "under 1 micron."

according to bottle, particles range in size from .2 microns to 150 microns

I don't have a micrometer, but it looks to be about 1.6mm I think you meant millimetres and not inches (?)

Using the software at the following website science4all.nl/?Microscopy_and_Photography___MICAM you can see certain microbes... would not say cells... the max resolution of 1280 pixels and calibrating 1/64" = 397 micrometers what I measure on screen I see less approximately 175x

Not sure if this is the answer you wanted but specifications show: Dust Removal Rate at..... 1 micron 99.97% - 0.3 micron 80%

Sorry, I don't have a tool to measure in mils. It's less thick than a ziplock bag. Pretty close to the thickness of a standard sheet of copy/printer paper. I use them for a lot of applications, and the only time I have had them rip or tear is when I am scrubbing something clean and I use my finger tip/nail; sometimes my nail + the pressure slices through the glove. Also, occassionally I'll get a defective glove (maybe 1 in 1000) that snaps/breaks when putting it on. I know it's not the answer you were looking for, but I hope it helps.

The particle size is not given, but it is in the micron range. I've gotten great results on non-critical applications, and I would recommend this product without hesitation, although you may want to buy less than a pound to try it out. If you really need the particle size, I may be able to help you out, I have access to an electron microscope.

Well, I haven't looked for actual test results for proof, but from the packaging on mine: "This filter's performance has been rated MERV 8 based on the minimum efficiency observed during the industry standard ASHRAE #52.2 test. The test is a determination of the filter's ability to trap particles in the air we breathe. These particles range in size from .3-10 microns in diameter. Residential filters typically are rated in the range of MERV 1-10. Higher ratings indicate more efficient filters."

No, filtration size is 0.02 micrometers. Flouride is at the atomic level, less than the filtration size of the ceramic filter.

The smallest is 2.2 mm, the largest is 11.2 mm (approximately). I use them for light duty applications, and so far they have been fine.
