Hollow balls are the other main consumables in E-mill which essentially aid in crushing. Fill in balls are used in certain sizes of mills after a certain running hours when there is additional space on track, because of wear of initial Hollow balls.
They are supplied in both machined and un-machined condition, with close tolerances, so that there is minimal vibration in the initial start up of the mill.
