Main characteristics of glassware used in the manufacturing of precision balls are detailed below but do not hesitate to contact us if you need special productions such as optical glass.
Glass balls diameters usually go from 1 mm to 20 mm but production can be done up to diameter 100 mm in a special glass. Please find below standard diameters that can be found from stock.
Glass balls can be produced from different standards. The most common standards are the following
– DIN 5401 standard (the German standardization system)
– ANSI/ABMA standard (the American standardization system)
– ISO 3290 standard (the European standardization system)
No matter what standard is used, the essential control points are the same because all standards have equivalences.
