Soda lime glass balls are widely used in dispensing, valve, flow-control and decorative applications requiring smooth surfaces, stable appearance and economical non-metallic ball solutions.
Soda lime glass balls are commonly used in dispensing balls, valve balls and decorative ball applications.
Soda lime glass balls provide smooth rolling performance and stable surface quality for dispensing, valve and decorative applications.
Compared with metallic balls, soda lime glass balls are non-magnetic, corrosion resistant and electrically insulating, making them suitable for flow-control systems and general industrial applications.
Soda lime glass balls are commonly selected where economical cost and smooth surface performance are more important than high mechanical strength.
Due to the brittle nature of glass materials, soda lime glass balls are generally not recommended for high-impact or high-load rolling applications.
Soda lime glass balls are also not recommended for applications involving strong alkali environments or severe thermal shock conditions.
