Wear Parts

Liners and discharge wear systems

The current FLS ARMOUR® horizontal mill liner range includes steel, rubber and composite solutions. Select the material for each position according to impact, abrasion, slurry erosion, weight and maintenance objectives.

Shell Liners
01

Shell Liners

Shell Liners / Shell Plates

Shell liners protect the shell interior and control grinding media movement. Check mill diameter, shell length, layout, hole patterns, thickness, individual weight and fastening method. The image illustrates a general part category.

Lifter Bar / Lifter Plate
02

Lifter Bar / Lifter Plate

Lifter Bars / Lifter Plates

Lifter bars work with shell liners to control lifting trajectories and withstand repeated impact and abrasion. Check cross-section, lift height, layout angle, wear direction and connecting structure. The image illustrates a general part category.

End Liners
03

End Liners

Head / End Liners

End liners fit inside the feed or discharge head and withstand impact from balls, ore and slurry. Distinguish feed/discharge ends, inner/outer rings, hole patterns, profiles and relationships with adjacent liners. The image illustrates a general part category.

Discharge Grate
04

Discharge Grate

Discharge Grates

Grates allow slurry to pass while retaining grinding media in grate-discharge mills. Check grate type, opening dimensions, flow passages, end position, layout and anti-blockage requirements. The image illustrates a general part category.

Pulp Lifters
05

Pulp Lifters

Pulp Lifters / Discharge Lifters

Located behind the discharge grates, pulp lifters guide slurry into the discharge trunnion. Check flow direction, inner/outer lifters, end position, holes and grate interfaces. The image illustrates a general part category.

Trunnion liner
06

Trunnion Liners

Mill Trunnion Liners

Trunnion liners fit inside the feed or discharge trunnion bore, protecting it and forming the material passage. Check end position, internal profile, length, flange hole pattern, seals and connecting structure. The image illustrates a general part category.

Spare Parts

Drive, load-bearing and system spares

FLS's current public mill spares range includes girth gears, trunnions, seals, hydraulic components, filters and sensors. This page also provides drawing-based identification for main bearings, mill heads, drives and critical fasteners.

Ball mill girth gear identification image
01

Girth Gear

Girth Gear / Ring Gear

A core transmission component on gear-driven ball mills. Check module, tooth count, pressure angle, face width, split construction, centre distance, helix direction, mating marks and heat treatment requirements.

Ball mill drive pinion identification image
02

Drive Pinion

Drive Pinion

Check the pinion together with the girth gear. Confirm tooth geometry, journals, bearing seats, keyways or connections, tooth accuracy, heat treatment and meshing direction.

Main Bearings, Bearing Liners and Housings
02

Main Bearings, Bearing Liners and Housings

Main Bearings, Bushings & Housings

These components support the trunnions and rotating assembly. Check journal diameter, fixed/floating end, hydrostatic or hydrodynamic design, bearing liner material, oil passages, seals and installation elevation. The image illustrates a general part category.

Trunnions and mill heads
03

Trunnions and Mill Heads

Trunnion & Mill Head

These large load-bearing structures connect the shell, main bearings and feed/discharge passages. Check end position, journals, flange hole patterns, materials, non-destructive testing, machining datums and liner interfaces. The image shows the FLS ball mill structure.

Drive and coupling assemblies
04

Drive and Coupling Assemblies

Drive Train & Couplings

These cover high-speed motors with reducers, low-speed motors directly coupled to pinions, or gearless drive interfaces. Check power, speed, reduction ratio, coupling, braking and installation datums. The image illustrates general horizontal mill drive parts.

Number checks: if you have an FLS, Fuller-Traylor or third-party drawing number, submit it with the ball mill specifications, serial number, part position, drawing revision and used-part photos. Verified number cross-references are recorded on the relevant part page.

What information is needed for an FLS ball mill spare parts enquiry?

Provide the FT Series or Fuller-Traylor family, complete specifications, serial number, support and drive arrangements, part position, drawing or part number, drawings, current-part photos and operating conditions.

Is mill diameter enough to identify liners?

No. Also check shell length, feed/discharge end, liner layout, hole patterns, fastening method, discharge structure, drawing revision and physical interfaces.

How are existing OEM or third-party drawing numbers checked?

Submit the drawing number, matching equipment specifications, serial number, installation position, drawing revision and used-part information. These allow checks against the equipment BOM, structural dimensions and applicable installation.

Submit FLS ball mill specifications, drawing numbers or drawings

Provide the FT Series or Fuller-Traylor family, diameter, length, drive and support arrangements, nameplate, serial number, current-part photos, drawings, material and operating conditions. We use these to identify parts, assess materials, organize production at certified foundries, control quality and deliver finished components.
