Industrial Tectonics Inc. The global leader in engineered specialty balls
When your application demands special balls, turn to ITI, the world's only true specialty ball manufacturer.
What sets them apart from other ball manufacturers? One of the biggest points of differentiation is the depth of their engineering and ball design expertise. And, unlike ordinary commercial ball suppliers, they design and manufacture only specialty precision balls and related spherical products from hundreds of state-of-the-art materials, alloys, and elements.
Beyond the conventional limits of commercial ball manufacturing
Because they devote themselves exclusively to producing specialty balls, ITI is intimately familiar with the special materials, surface finishes, and tolerance requirements of hundreds of applications in petrochemical, machine tool, aircraft, medical, nuclear, marine, fluid power, and various consumer products.
They can produce balls from any workable material to meet performance specifications for geometric tolerances, specific gravity, weight, self-lubrication, abrasion resistance, chemical environments, low or high temperature services, noise, magnetic properties, and radioactivity. |

Quality control
Their quality assurance program meets the stringent requirements of the aero-space, defense, medical, and automotive industries. Since their non-metal balls are often used in the food and drug industries, they verify the composition of their incoming raw materials and track their use as dictated by the FDA.
They’ve developed detailed procedures as part of their “Quality Program Requirements” for control of all information, documentation, engineering, design, material purchases, manufacturing, processing, inspection, nondestructive testing, gage calibration, and other parameters. Balls are inspected using the finest gaging equipment and inspection techniques available to assure that every ball they ship meets your specifications exactly.
They also maintain a complete record of every job, including all material, chemical, and physical properties, heat treat data, and inspection test results, allowing them to reschedule repeat orders quickly and easily. |
Largest selection of stock specialty balls
ITI maintains the largest selection of standard ball materials in the industry, allowing them to ship many orders within a matter of days. They also stock a variety of uncommon ball materials and grades to meet their customers’ needs. And when your application requires design modifications or unusual ball sizes, materials, or tolerances, their computerized production control system assures that they can meet your delivery deadlines with complete confidence.
The Next Step
The ball experts in ITI's sales and engineering departments can help you determine the best specialty ball design for your product designers; they may even be able to identify ways to improve product performance, or reduce manufacturing costs. |
