    Rubber Balls

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Rubber. Rubber Balls.
    Use rubber balls for a variety of applications, including cleaning, vibration damping, and sealing.
    Multipurpose Neoprene—Oil and abrasion resistant. Let balls bounce around the inside of vibrating sifters to clean screens, or use them as seals in pumps and check valves.
    Ultra-Stretchable Abrasion-Resistant Natural Rubber—FDA compliant for direct contact with food, these balls are often used to clean screens in vibrating sifters in food, beverage, and other sanitary environments. You can also use them as seals in pumps and check valves.
    Weather-Resistant EPDM—These balls won’t degrade from sunlight, ozone, or water. They can be used to clean screens inside vibrating sifters, damp vibration inside assemblies, and seal pumps and check valves.
    Tear- and Abrasion-Resistant Polyurethane Rubber—These balls combine the shock-absorbing qualities of rubber with the strength of plastic. Use as seals in pumps and check valves or let them bounce inside of vibrating sifters for an effective screen cleaner.
    Tear- and Abrasion-Resistant Polyurethane Rubber with Steel Core—A steel core makes these heavier than standard polyurethane balls, so they’re often used to offset buoyancy or to reach a specific weight.
    Oil-Resistant Buna-N—These balls offer good resistance to petroleum-based oils. Use them as seals in pumps and check valves or let them bounce inside of vibrating sifters for an effective screen cleaner.
    Extreme-Temperature Silicone Rubber—For temperatures up to 400° F, these balls seal pumps and check valves, or bounce inside of vibrating sifters to clean screens. Silicone also offers good resistance to ozone and salt water.
    Steam- and Highly Chemical-Resistant Aflas—Chemical and steam resistant, these balls stand up to harsh chemicals such as ethylene glycol and nitric acid. They're often found in sterilization and water treatment processes, where they’re used as seals in pumps and check valves.
    Highly Chemical-Resistant Viton® Fluoroelastomer—Resist harsh chemicals and high temperatures in applications as extreme as aerospace fuel systems. These balls withstand chemicals such as nitric acid, ethylene glycol, and isopropyl alcohol. Viton® has better resistance to solvents and petroleum-based fuels than Aflas, but it doesn't hold up as well to steam and strong acids.
    Ultra-Chemical-Resistant FFKM—For use in harsh environments, these balls resist most chemicals and temperatures up to 445° F. They're often used as seals in pumps and check valves that are exposed to high heat and aggressive chemicals, such as in semiconductor manufacturing.
