Ceramic Ball to Industry

Ceramic Ball to Industry

Ceramic balls is a kind of material to cover and support catalysts inside various towers of refinery, petrochemical, steel industries etc, which is playing an important role.

And the 23-26% alumina content ceramic ball is the most widely used media in the industry with unmatched impact resistance, thermal shock, crush strength, and survivability. Products to these specifications Manufactured from very high quality chemical-porcelain clay materials, which has quite Excellent stability, high mechanical strength and resistance to thermal shock, This makes them All ideal choice for support of all types of catalyst.

Bellowing is the parameter of the industry standard.
