Product Overview
This stainless steel mirror finished sphere hollow ball is known as outdoor ornament or as a landmark piece of architecture or as a landscape of a project, making a focal point in your landscape, architecture, building, etc
Production Processes:
Cutting raw material:
The sheet will be cut based on your required size and thickness after calculating by our technicist, which is the reason why your specifications about diameter, thickness and specific material are needed for the stainless steel sphere.
Welding:
It is a very precise procedure. Our professional welder will weld the rudiment stainless steel sphere by TIG. A good welding seam is vital for the roundness and against the large hydraulic pressuring.

Application Scenarios
- Lampshades and pendant lighting
- Handrail and stair finials
- Floating level balls
- Christmas and retail display
- Garden gazing balls
Who It Is For
- Lighting and furniture makers buying spheres as components
- Balustrade and handrail fabricators needing finials with a welded pedestal
- Water treatment and process plants using floating balls
- Display and visual merchandising studios
Problems It Solves
- A visible equator seam ruins a mirror finish. Stamping and water pressuring both leave an invisible seam after grinding.
- Hanging a sphere needs a thread, not a glued fitting. We tap metric and unified threads directly into the wall.
- Small custom diameters normally need tooling. Five standard press hole moulds cover the common sizes without a mould fee.
Technical Features
- Drilling and tapping in metric and unified threads on request
- Base plates, pedestal tubes and hanging fittings fabricated with the piece
- Sheet development calculated in house, so non-standard sizes are possible above ∅200mm

Materials
We form spheres and hemispheres in AISI 304, AISI 316 and AISI 316L stainless steel, Q235 carbon steel, H62 brass alloy and A6061 aluminium alloy. The alloy decides corrosion resistance, weight and how the surface takes a polish.
For this product the standard specification is Q235 carbon steel, AISI 201 / 304 / 316. Tell us the site conditions and we will confirm whether a different grade is worth the cost.
Manufacturing Process
Forming happens by stamping press, water pressuring, spinning or hand assembling. Two halves are joined at the equator, the weld is ground, and the surface is finished last, after any cutting or drilling has been done.
Quality Control
Incoming material
Alloy and sheet thickness are checked against the order before any blank is cut.
Forming check
Diameter and wall are measured after pressing, spinning or water pressuring.
Weld and grind
The equator weld is inspected, then welds and burrs are ground off before finishing.
Surface inspection
Every piece is inspected for scratches, dents and polish consistency under light.
Packing
Protective packing is built around the diameter and weight, and photographs are sent before dispatch.
Customisation Options
- Diameter and wall thickness to your drawing, with no mould limit above ∅200mm
- Metric and unified threaded holes, drilled apertures and perforated patterns
- Welded base tubes, base plates, internal ribs and pedestals
- Mirror, brushed, sandblasted, etched, electroplated, PVD colour or spray painted finishes
- Logos, lettering and world maps by sandblasting, etching, laser cutting or plasma cutting
- LED kits fitted inside the sphere
- Segmentation into quarters or eighths for sizes above container limits

Comparing forming routes rather than products? The process guide sets out size, thickness, seam and mould limit for each.
Use Guide
Confirm the diameter first
Diameter drives the forming route, the wall thickness, the price and the freight mode. Settle it before anything else.
Match the alloy to the site
304 inland, 316 near salt water or pools, Q235 where a rust patina is wanted, brass or aluminium where weight or colour matters.
Choose the finish last
Finishing always happens after forming, welding, cutting and grinding, so pattern edges stay clean.
Plan the fixing
Tell us whether the piece is bolted, threaded, welded to a base tube or suspended, and we build the fitting into the part.
Check the shipping limit
∅2200mm fits a container, ∅3500mm fits a flat rack, and larger spheres are segmented with bolted ribs.
