G25 eyepiece reticles, Walton/Beckett for asbestos

Walton and Beckett Graticule for AsbestosCalibration factors are required for each of these graticules. See note below.The Walton and Beckett graticule is used for counting fibrous dust (e.g. asbestos or glass fibers) and is particularly useful where the majority of fibers to be counted are shorter than 5 microns. The circle is divided into four by two diametrical lines scaled in units of 5 and 3 microns respectively. 3 and 5 microns are the critical measurements of fiber lengths and diameters used in fiber counting. Unlike the usual globes of other particle graticules, the Walton and Beckett have a series of shapes to compare objects with. These shapes have been designed for comparison with fibers, especially since they incorporate an aspect ratio of 3:1 or 5:1, essential for such analysis.PatternDescriptionDiameterProduct
