We can supply custom made products
Balls on Shafts, Stems, or Wires.
For handling or identification purposes, having a ball attached to a stem or wire of some form can greatly simplify the use of the ball. In measurement applications, particularly if a range of similar size balls are used the ability to identify size visible can be of great advantage.
Modified Balls
Half or part balls, Balls with through or blind holes. Balls with internal threads, or flats. In many instances where a spherical or partially spherical surface is required, manufacture from all ball offers significant advantages in terms of accuracy or cost.
Ballizing Balls
Ballizing provides a simple method of producing tightly controlled hole tolerances at very low cost. In practice ball of the appropriate size is pressed through a pre-machined bore causing plastic deformation to occur in the bore wall. Elastic recovery then takes place, and produces the final the final hole size.
