What size/caliber of balls does this use?
1693828
You can use any size up to about an inch. Weight is more important as too much weight will overwhelm the bands.

They are 1/4" made by Daisy & have flat sides not an exact sphere. But I'll tell u my secret weapon are glass marbles! Bigger, stronger,cheaper, & reusable. Happy Holidays

Ammo weight depends on the bands, 1/4th inch ammo is almost always far too light for most bands you will get these days, using ammo that is too light for the bands is like dry firing a bow, it will cause the bands to wear out prematurely and cause a lot of painful hand slap as the band snaps forward, you should use at least 3/8th inch ammo with most of these newer bands, glass tracer style ammo is fine for them too, the max weight is a steel or lead ball around .50 caliber anything larger or heavier will require therabands or some such very heavy bands as the standard bands are really too weak to propel the ammo in any kind of meaningful way.

There's a little leather pouch that holds up to about 1.5" ball. I tried 1 (only) sweet gum pod, but it was rough and thought I'd tear up the soft pouch. I used mostly 1/2 ice cubes (which were hard to aim!) and small rocks about 1/3" diameter. BBs would work very well as would air soft balls. I went for the all natural rock ammo and it worked well for dogs in our yard and shooting at target hay bales.

With the 1 7/8" ball installed it's 1 3/4" (pretty typical actually), but I didn't check it with the 2" ball, sorry, but I assume it's 1/8" less(?), or 1 5/8"??

The ball size does not matter. It is the shank size that is important. I believe the hole size in this receiver is 1", therefore you will what to get a ball with this size shank.

I think this particular ball only comes in one size (approximately 5 inches). The only ball my dogs have yet to destroy!

Regular size balls for children's ball pit. About 2" diameter, without measuring. Red, blue, green, yellow. Not enough to fill bottom but enough for a two year old to throw around. I think you can buy extra balls locally.

The diameter of the ball is about the same as a tennis ball...maybe a tad bit smaller. The balls are not hollow, they are solid rubber. Just want to say that these work so well for me, my husband, and our children that I bought two more for other family members! They have been so helpful!

These balls are correct size and weight. I use them with the Louisville Slugger UPM 45 machine and they work great. They should work with any pitching machine that is capable of using real baseballs.

This is a mini ball. It's five inches in diameter. My son uses it to play around- not meant for game play.

I have an 18 lb ball from a different brand & it is around 1- 1/2 times the size of my 8 lb Valeo ball. I'd say add an inch to the circumference for a couple more pounds added. I hope this helps. I do like the Valeo brand over all others. Very nice grip.

I am not sure as I gave it as a gift and didn't notice what type of balls were used. Hardware stores would have them if they are small steel balls.

It appears to be a standard basketball hoop size. Any size replacement ball (anything from a junior size basketball to a full sized adult regulation basketball) should work fine.

I guess I am not 100% sure about that, it comes with 2 "rings" that the balls shoot through, (softball & baseball size) I assume that is the only sizes it will do with any efficacy

Hi Liddia.. Sorry that I cannot be much help, and took so long to let you know. I ordered foam balls from three different suppliers, exactly because I didn't know the sizes. Wondered, as you have. Would be nice if the descriptions included sizes. I don't know which balls came from which source. I can only report that all of them were about 1-1/2 inch to 3 inches. Hope this helps some?? Ralph

The diameter should be 55 centimeters, from one side to the other side going through the center. I think some companies may make the same size in different colors. My understanding is that the size should be on your ball, either near the brand name or around the end where it is to be inflated. I would check for a size, perhaps you were sent a wrong size.

there are two sizes for this glow ball, is this the smaller or larger of the two? I am looking for the larger. please help!

The inside diameter is 14/16 of an inch. The overall diameter is 1and 2/16 of an inch. I had to use my old nut with the new ball/lever since the nut that came with the new was smaller than my existing one. Hopefully you can save your old nut and just insert the new ball/lever assy. Hope this helps. The plastic ball is larger than what you can find in most stores (i.e. Home Depot, Lowes), which is what I needed most since the old lever rusted away.

The 2" ball is a very common size, but there is also a 1&7/8 sized ball which is also very common. You should be able to pick up up on Amazon and many other places.
