SFM-3 Tungsten Carbide (WC) Milling Jar with 80ml Capacity for Vibration and Rotary Ball Mills
The SFM-3 tungsten carbide milling jar is designed specifically for use with MTI’s SFM-3 and SFM-3-II vibration and rotary ball milling machines. This jar is engineered to provide robust performance for high-energy milling tasks requiring durable and wear-resistant materials. Its 80 ml volume makes it suitable for small to medium batch milling applications where precision and material integrity are critical.
Constructed with an inner lining of tungsten carbide YG8 at a thickness of 4.5 mm, the jar offers exceptional hardness and resistance to abrasion, ideal for milling hard materials. The outer shell is made from stainless steel 304 with a 3.5 mm thickness, providing structural strength and corrosion resistance. This combination ensures long service life and reliable containment of milling media and samples during high-speed operation.
