Description
Grinding ball 30 mm hard metal tungsten carbide is a high-density laboratory milling medium made from tungsten carbide (WC, grade GC10) for demanding ball-mill applications. With a diameter of 30 mm and very good abrasion resistance, it is intended for hard, abrasive sample materials. Recommended loading is eight balls in a 500 ml grinding bowl (useful grinding charge 80–225 ml) or six balls in a 250 ml bowl (useful grinding charge 30–125 ml). Each ball has a net weight of 0,2000 kg and is supplied as a single piece. These grinding balls from manufacturer Fritsch suit workflows in which hard-metal media are required to withstand abrasive feeds while delivering effective comminution. The elevated mass of the WC balls supports energy input into tough samples when bowl volume and ball count are correctly matched. Material behaviour is described in the manufacturer’s general workpiece specifications and guideline analyses, assisting laboratories in selecting tungsten-carbide media for hard and abrasive grinding tasks.
This article is part of Mills, grinders & homogenisers, in Test sieves & mills.

Questions about grinding ball 30 mm hardmetal tungsten carbide
What is this article?
grinding ball 30 mm hardmetal tungsten carbide is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Fritsch for laboratory use. It sits in Mills, grinders & homogenisers, inside Test sieves & mills, in Lab instruments.
A mill, grinder or homogeniser reduces particle size or breaks a tissue before an extraction. The rotor and the sieve insert decide the result. A knife mill and a bead mill are different machines. The sample has to tolerate the heat the motor puts into it.
A test sieve sorts particles by whether they pass an opening. Wire mesh and perforated plate are two ways of making that opening, and the nominal size is not a suggestion. A sieve shaker repeats the motion so the result does not depend on how hard someone shook by hand. A mill or grinder makes the particles smaller before they are sieved. The certificate of the sieve, and the opening size, are what an audit asks for. Measurement practice around mass and dimension sits with the BIPM, EURAMET and BELAC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Test sieves & mills. The sub-category is Mills, grinders & homogenisers. The catalogue is Lab instruments.
