Balcones Round Steel Balls

Balcones or Satellites (variously called saturn, sputnik, planet, UFO) are mixed with round steel balls and other steel burnishing media (diagonals, pins, eclipses) to achieve overall cleaning, consistent metal polishing and excellent mirror finish all over the component profile.
Round steel balls are most widely used shape in steel media. However, it is not always versatile, as a sphere cannot access corners. It is also unable to make contact in grooves or recesses if the steel ball diameter is larger than the groove width. In such cases, milky areas become apparent on the component surface where balls are unable to provide polishing action. Steel ballcones and satellites works very well in such areas for providing uniform finishing results
