Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3)

Alumina Oxide Ceramic Balls - (Al2O3)

Precision Plastic Ball Company offers a selection of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) ceramic balls in a range of sizes for a variety of uses and applications. We are proud to be an industry-leading alumina ceramic ball manufacturer and supplier. Our inventory includes high-quality alumina oxide balls as well as chrome steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastic precision balls.

Features / Properties of Alumina Oxide Balls

Alumina oxide (AL2O3) is a top choice of ceramic balls due to its high corrosion resistance and high operating temperature capabilities. Precision alumina oxide balls are used where a material that resists abrasion, corrosion, and oxidation is required. Balls manufactured from alumina oxide typically are selected for high-temperature environments and high-wear applications due to their proven performance in extreme conditions. In fact, alumina oxide balls maintain dimensional stability up to 3180 ºF making them ideal for high-temperature environments. Our inventory of Alumina Oxide balls range in diameter sizes from .031 inches to 1".

Because of their durability, alumina oxide balls have a variety of heavy-duty and industrial uses. For example, the use of alumina oxide balls allows industrial bearings to run at higher speeds and higher temperatures.

Applications

  • Chemical and down-hole pumps
  • Valves and bearings
  • Gages and flowmeters
  • Medical devices
  • Petroleum manufacturing

Strengths

  • Strong corrosion resistance
  • Non-porous and durable
  • Good electrical insulators
  • Resists oxidation
  • Tolerant to water and salt solutions
  • Resistant to many chemicals and acids
  • Abrasion-resistant
  • Spin faster than steel balls
  • Nearly frictionless
  • Lighter and harder than steel balls
  • Can be used up to 3180 ºF
  • Require less lubrication than other ball materials
  • Allows for high compressive strength

Weaknesses

  • Can be susceptible to damage by hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids
  • Not suited for high alkaline environments
