Pinball Size

With the exception of a few antique machines, Pinball machines use 1 1/16" (1.0625") steel balls.
Bally Bingo flipperless pinball games require eight 1 1/8" (1.125") dia. play balls.
Williams Hyperball requires fifty five 3/4" (.750") balls. The hypercannon fires up to 250 3/4" balls per minute at targets located around the outer edge of the playfield. No flippers.

Premium Chrome Steel Pinballs

These highly polished 1 1/16" diameter grade 25 chrome steel pinballs are harder and more finely polished than standard BRF (bright finish) OEM carbon steel pinballs. The finer finish will add to the life of your playfield by causing less abrasion and will last longer in play due to their extra hardness. Chrome steel pinballs are more corrosion resistant than standard pinballs. Pinballs should be replaced when they lose their glossy finish to prevent damage the play field. (Rockwell C 67 hardness 1.0 micro inch "RA" finish) Not recommended for use in machines with magnets. Thru hardened balls will become slightly magnetized over time. Soft core (case hardened) standard carbon steel should be used in machines with magnets.

When carbon steel standard pinballs should be used

Some tables feature electrically operated magnets below the playfield to affect the ball's speed and/or trajectory. This may be done to make the ball's movement unpredictable, to temporarily halt the ball (as a "ball saver", for example), or to otherwise control the ball by non-mechanical means. Electromagnets may also be used in above-playfield elements (often as part of the playfield "toys") to grab the ball and move it elsewhere (up onto a mini-playfield, for example). The Williams machine The Twilight Zone, featured a mini-playfield that used electromagnets controlled by the flipper buttons, allowing the player to "flip" the ball on the mini-playfield, essentially working as invisible flippers

Bally Space Gunner, Bally Marksman, Bally SharpShooter (12 balls), Midway Bazooka, Midway Shooting Gallery, Midway Deluxe Shooting Gallery, Midway Rifle Gallery, Midway Rifle Range, Midway Rifle Champ, Midway Trophy Gun, Midway Space Gun. Improve your aim with new projectiles. They shoot faster and straighter because there is less compression loss around the balls in the gun barrel. Old worn out balls destroy accuracy and that was always the complaint with this game among collectors, but new balls change that immediately. These are new high quality balls of the same size and material as OEM.
