Plastic Balls

Polycarbonate—Offering excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range, these polycarbonate balls are only half the weight of glass. This material is comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.

Plastic Pellets

Use them with injection molders, 3D printers, and other molding equipment.

Impact Resistant—Absorbing impact without cracking or breaking, these plastic pellets are molded into parts that endure bumps, scrapes, and falls.

Polycarbonate—Polycarbonate pellets handle higher temperatures than any of these other materials, but they’re more difficult to thermoform. Clear in color and a lightweight alternative to glass, they’re often used to make windows, machine guards, and instrument covers.
