In this paper, the ASTM grain size number of aluminium alloy specimen was determined by the Abrams three-circle procedure and planimetric procedure, according to ASTM E112-13 standard, and the measurement uncertainty was evaluated. Based on the test data and theoretical analysis, the %RA limit for acceptability of ASTM E112 grain size measurement was discussed. The following two corrections are made: when G is determined via the Abrams threecircle and planimetric procedures, the %RA limit should not exceed 8.4% and 16.1%, respectively, instead of earlier regulated value of 10%.
