DIY fine filter pad substiutes?

I would expect that all sintered glass would be likely to shed fines. I thought the problem was that water current caused the pieces of sintered glass media to rub against one another, occasionally causing small bits to break off. I would be suprised if any of the sintered glass media would be immune from that. They all have the rough, brittle texture.
