When agricultural sprayers compress liquid, they will use pepper balls to seal, and the least used balls are glass balls. With the development of agricultural sprayers, the sealing balls used in high-end sprayers all use plastic pepper balls. What are the technical advantages of using plastic pepper balls over glass balls?
Plastic pepper balls have the characteristics of corrosion resistance. Generally, agricultural sprayers are used to spray pesticides, which are generally corrosive. Therefore, plastic pepper balls are much better than metal balls. The specific gravity of plastic pepper balls is light, and they can float up and down in the sealer, and there are few stuck phenomena.
Plastic pepper balls are self-lubricating, and the surface will always be smooth. Unlike glass pepper balls, the surface will be dirty after being used for a long time, which will affect the pressure of the sprayer and weaken the effect of spraying.
Plastic pepper balls have good toughness, while glass balls are easily broken, and the service life of plastic pepper balls is generally more than 3 times longer than that of glass balls.
