Complete Ball as a Kinematic Component
A complete ball should be used whenever possible. It is the lowest cost and highest-quality product. In many applications, they can be staked or press-fit into place. In low stress applications, the ball can be glued into the assembly. When gluing a ball into an assembly, the cleanliness of the surfaces is of the greatest importance.
