INDUSTRY CORP.LIGHTWEIGHT CHEMICAL-RESISTANT PLASTIC
Low-density, corrosion-free plastic balls for float valves, check valves, level control, flow meters and chemical-handling systems.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Polypropylene balls, also called PP balls, are lightweight engineering-plastic spheres used where buoyancy, chemical resistance, electrical insulation and corrosion-free movement matter more than high load capacity.
Because PP has a density below water, it is particularly useful in float valves, level indicators and liquid-control systems. Grade, additives, color, temperature and chemical compatibility should be confirmed for each project.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Values below are product-family references. The quotation, drawing, agreed standard and inspection plan control the final supply specification.
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDANCE
Material selection affects load, wear, corrosion, temperature, precision, service life and total program cost.
KEY PERFORMANCE FEATURES
Low specific gravity supports buoyancy-based valves, indicators and liquid-surface applications.
A practical non-metallic choice for many water and chemical-handling environments.
Non-magnetic, insulating performance supports instruments and specialized devices.
Color, size, UV stabilization, packing and OEM requirements can be reviewed for production programs.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Application names are starting points—not approval of universal suitability. Share the real medium, load, speed, pressure, temperature, life target and compliance needs.
Buoyant elements for tanks, indicators, switches and liquid-management assemblies.
Lightweight moving components for compatible media, pressures and seat designs.
Corrosion-free components for selected acids, alkalis, oils and process fluids.
Non-metallic components where material, cleanliness and documentation are specifically approved.
QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION
Document requirements should be defined before quotation so the inspection method, sampling level, traceability and external testing can be planned correctly.
PACKAGING OPTIONS
Final packing depends on material, diameter, surface sensitivity, order weight, storage time and destination.
Samples and size-separated quantities with clear lot identification.
Regular export orders with protective inner liners.
Industrial-volume packing selected by ball size and order weight.
Custom counts, color labels, private labels and pallet requirements by agreement.
Supported formats: bulk packaging · small-quantity packaging · plastic containers · bags · cartons · export pallets · customized packaging.
SMALL QUANTITY & SAMPLE ORDERS
SDBALLS Industry Corp. supports North American customers with sample quantities, prototype requirements, testing programs and specialty ball inquiries.
Samples and small quantities are available for buoyancy, chemical compatibility and assembly trials. Provide the diameter, grade, color, fluid, temperature, pressure, quantity and any UV or documentation requirements.
PRODUCT FAQ
Yes. Typical PP density is about 0.87–0.90 g/cm³, so the balls generally float in water. Actual buoyancy depends on the formulation and liquid density.
The reference range is 1.5–160 mm, with availability depending on grade, color, quantity and production method.
They suit light-load, low-speed mechanisms but are not substitutes for high-load precision bearing balls.
PP resists many acids, alkalis, alcohols, oils and inorganic substances. Strong oxidizers, halogens, aromatic hydrocarbons and hot chemicals require specific review.
Yes, subject to resin formulation, production quantity, color approval and application requirements.
Yes. SDBALLS supports sample evaluation and small orders where available; custom colors or production sizes may require a minimum quantity.
