The high-quality steel balls used in SAG milling can withstand heavy loads without breaking or losing shape quickly. With advancements in technology and engineering design over recent years, modern-day SAG mills come …

SAG is an acronym for semi-autogenous grinding. SAG mills are autogenous mills that also use grinding balls like a ball mill. A SAG mill is usually a primary or first stage grinder. SAG mills use a ball charge of 8 to 21%. [6] [7] The largest SAG mill is 42′ (12.8m) in diameter, powered by a 28 MW (38,000 HP) motor. [8] A SAG mill with a 44 ...

The SAG ball series is used primarily for SAG ore grinding operations in which high impact breakage resistance and high wear resistance are the main ball attributes required.
