Brown Fused Alumina for Grinding Media

Wear-resistant ceramic-grade abrasive for high-performance grinding in wet and dry milling systems.

Brown fused alumina used in grinding media

Why Use BFA in Grinding Media?

Brown fused alumina (BFA) is widely used to manufacture ceramic grinding balls, beads, and cylinders. Its extreme hardness, high bulk density, and low porosity make it ideal for reducing particle size in materials like ceramics, paints, minerals, and electronics without contaminating the slurry.

  • High Mohs hardness (9.0) ensures long service life
  • Chemically inert and thermally stable
  • Excellent fracture toughness under milling pressure

Typical Applications

  • Wet and dry milling of ceramic powders
  • Paint, pigment, and coating slurry dispersion
  • Battery materials and electronic paste production
  • Mineral grinding in continuous ball mills

Suitable for both horizontal and vertical stirred mills, batch or continuous processes.

Available Forms & Sizes

  • Grinding beads: 0.3 mm – 5 mm
  • Grinding balls: 6 mm – 30 mm diameter
  • Grinding cylinders: custom lengths available

Can be customized with sintered or fused matrix, roundness control, and bulk density optimization.
