The CrushGrind Diamond range are constructed using ceramic mechanisms. These unique mechanisms, which come complete with a 25 year guarantee, will grind salt, pepper, spices, herbs and much more. All mechanisms are adjustable with 14 settings to give an excellent range of grinds from coarse to fine.A great benefit of these mechanisms is that they are fully enclosed inside the grinding mill - There is no top pin protruding from the mill, as with traditional mechanisms and this allows for greater freedom of creativity in the design and turning of the mill.Specially designed integral ribs and catchers securely hold the mechanisms in place for the lifetime of the mill. Shafts can be cut to the exact length needed if necessary.
