AGball Agate Milling Balls for Laboratory Milling, Diameter Options 10-19.5mm, Pack of 20
AGball milling balls are designed specifically for use in laboratory milling processes where contamination-free grinding is critical. These agate balls are ideal for milling samples within agate jars, ensuring minimal contamination and high purity of the milled material. The balls come in a range of diameters from 10mm up to 19.5mm, allowing users to select the optimal size for their milling application based on sample size and milling jar dimensions.
The milling balls operate by impacting and grinding the sample material inside the milling jar during rotation or vibration, effectively reducing particle size through mechanical force. AGball packages contain 20 balls each, providing sufficient quantity for typical laboratory milling setups. Users can select the desired ball diameter from available options and order the corresponding quantity based on multiples of 20 balls per package.
