Low Friction Ceramic Balls from Factory Pro

The Factory Pro FP-B-CDB408 Ceramic Differential Balls are designed to keep differentials turning smoothly with minimal drag. These 1.6mm ceramic balls offer reliable, repeatable performance for tuned drivetrains.

Advantages of Ceramic in Diffs

Ceramic balls reduce rotational resistance and stand up well to heat, which helps maintain consistent diff operation during repeated runs. Their wear characteristics make them a practical choice for precision tuning.

Applications and Fitment

These 1.6mm balls fit many RC differentials that specify that size, making them a useful upgrade for track cars and precision street builds where diff behaviour is critical.

Yes, you can use them in place of 1.6mm steel balls. Make sure the race and ball retainers are compatible with ceramic material.
Standard diff greases work fine. Choose a consistency that matches your setup and driving conditions for the desired lock and slip characteristics.
Ceramic balls resist wear and heat, so they typically maintain performance longer than steel in similar conditions, provided they are not subjected to heavy impact.
They can contribute to a cleaner diff feel and slightly crisper response, which may help handling on cars sensitive to diff drag and heat.
Work on a clean bench, use tweezers for placement, and apply a minimal amount of grease to retain the balls during reassembly to avoid contamination.
