Yeah they are the same type of thing, though the ceramic saddles found in T500`s are semi circular (chunky) pieces of ceramic, the Raschig rings are cleaner looking tubular shaped.
Raschig rings, (known as packing) are tube shaped ceramic rings, usually feature similar measurements in width and height and were invented by Friedrich Raschig, a chemist from Germany. In the case of producing alcoholic beverages, these rings are stacked in distilling columns to aid ethanol vapors traveling towards the condensing unit while stopping vapors of other harmful substances from proceeding upwards. You can receive purer and stronger ethanol when these rings are used in your distillation towers.
