inert ceramic ball (10mm)

catalyst bed support ball: 1. Al2O3: 17%~99.4% 2. high crush strenghth, good impact resistance 3. immediate delivery

inert ceramic balls is your smart choice in support media with unmatched impact resistance, thermal shock and crush strenth.

inert ceramic balls are the most widely used in refining, petrochemical, and gas processing applications with unmatched impact resistence, thermal shock and crush strength and survivalbility. Our balls is your smart choice in catalyst and adsorbent bed support media because of the high quality raw materials, controlled processing and the most consistent properties.
