National Fluoromers is a reputable manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of PTFE balls, designed to deliver smooth, non-stick, and corrosion-resistant performance in demanding environments. Available in various sizes and tolerances, our PTFE balls are widely used in ball valves, check valves, stirrers, flow control systems, and laboratory applications.

Made from virgin or filled PTFE, these balls offer unmatched resistance to chemicals, extreme temperatures, and friction — making them ideal for precision components that require reliability without contamination.

what is a PTFE ball?

A PTFE ball is a solid, spherically shaped component machined from polytetrafluoroethylene. It is commonly used in fluid handling systems where chemical compatibility, zero moisture absorption, and thermal stability are essential. The non-adhesive and self-lubricating nature of PTFE allows the ball to rotate or seal without sticking, even after extended use.

PTFE balls are ideal for systems where hygiene, precision, and chemical purity matter.
