AL6070 Sapphire Balls

Sapphire Balls Description:

Sapphire balls demonstrate extraordinary hardness, surpassed only by diamond, making them extremely resistant to wear, scratches, and deformation. These balls are made of synthetic sapphire, a form of crystalline aluminium oxide, and exhibit remarkable chemical stability, as they withstand aggressive chemicals without corroding or decomposing. Their high optical clarity and transparency across a wide wavelength range make them ideal for use in optical precision systems and laser applications. Furthermore, sapphire balls possess excellent thermal conductivity and can endure extreme temperatures, maintaining their mechanical and optical properties even in challenging environments. Due to these characteristics, they are highly valued in industrial, scientific, and optical applications.
