Steele Disintegrators — Consistent sizing for bulk raw materials

Ideal for wet clays, shales, filter cakes, limestone and other medium rocks that require intermediate size reduction between primary and final crushing. Steele disintegrators eliminate the need for other sizing machines when you don’t need fine grinding.

Steele disintegrators process wet, sticky clays in any feedable lump size, reducing material to small chips measuring 6mm or below. They also process shales, soft limestone, fireclay and other dry materials, producing an output that is 60% screenable through No. 8 mesh.

Machinery, engineering and service

For more information on the Steele disintegrator and its value to your material preparation, talk to your regional Steele sales or service representative, or contact us.

Fine grinding for smooth roll crushing

Steele disintegrators prepare materials for smooth roll crushing. They can also re-circulate flat cakes or plates from a smooth roll crusher. We make two sizes:

  • Model 6B-18 — 18-inch (457mm) wide disintegrator
  • Model 6B-24 — 24-inch (610mm) wide disintegrators for larger materials sizes and higher output

Like all Steele machinery, our disintegrators come with our comprehensive raw materials database and the experience supporting global customers with service and parts.
