Applications:
Because their polished surfaces provide an extremely good seal, glass balls are ideal for check valves in food processing, pharmaceutical, and photographic processing equipment. Black glass balls are used in flowmeters, slip and turn indicators, and other aircraft instrumentation. Fiber optics applications often rely on glass balls because they can be made optically clear.

Features:
Glass balls are dimensionally stable, resist corrosion and chemical absorption well, and can withstand temperatures up to 600°F. Glass balls vary in density depending on the type of glass they're made from, thus they're widely used in applications requiring a ball of a certain specific gravity.

Materials:
We can manufacture high precision glass balls to your specifications from borosilicate, soda-lime, and black glass.

Grades and Tolerances:
Grades and tolerances are specific to each application. Call us with a description of your application and we will assist you in specifying the glass ball that best meets your requirements.
