We have also found that cheap balls will also reck your cloth. We sold a table to my brother in law and he chose a black worsted felt, but he bought cheap balls. Well after playing a while the felt started showing white burn marks everywhere and he assumed it was from the quality of the felt. Well little did he know but it was from the standard non phenol balls set he was playing with. Regardless of the quality level, all balls are controlled along seven basic criteria: density, balance, diameter tolerance, roundness, color precision, surface polish, and brilliance. I'm cutting to the chase and recommending the Aramith Balls or Belgium Balls. Aramith balls are proven to outlast standard non phenol balls 5 times as long and they are easier on your tables creating a much more cost effective product. With its Vitrotech technology, the ball surface is completely through-hardened, giving it its unique transparent vitrified surface and increasing the surface density and hence its longevity. Its very fine molecular structure has been engineered to resist to the high-friction temperatures when the ball slips into roll. As its surface doesn’t rough up, it keeps its smooth polish a lot longer and won’t rough up the cloth either. These are beautiful balls and has several affordable options if your on a budget.
