Zirconia Silicate Grinding Media

Zirconia silicate, also known as Zirconium silicate or Zircon silicate (SXZS/SXMX Series), is a type of ceramic grinding media that is composed of zirconium silicate. It is a naturally occurring mineral that is mined from the earth and processed to produce ceramic beads for grinding applications. Zirconia silicate beads are known for their high density, high strength, and excellent wear resistance, making them suitable for use in demanding grinding applications. They are commonly used in the production of paints, inks, coatings, and ceramics, as well as in the mining and mineral processing industries. Zirconia silicate beads are available in a range of sizes and shapes to suit different applications.

Sanxin presents Zirconia Silicate (SXZS/SXMX) grinding media are made from high purity and ultra-fine zircon powder, with a homogenous microstructure and no hollows. They are characterized by high strength and excellent cost-effectiveness compared to fused zirconium silicate beads and other options. Their qualities and properties meet international advanced standards.
