Product Benefits

French flint pebbles: grind more with less.

  • Superior performance as a grinding media compared to any other natural pebble, because of higher hardness, and higher resistance to abrasion
  • Low pebbles consumption: 4.5kg of our pebbles are needed to grind 1000kg of white ceramic body (compared to between 7kg-20kg with other pebbles)
  • No pollution of the grinded material : >98.5% SiO2 content
  • Controlled size and shape
  • 8 different sizes adapted to any kind of ball mill.
