8ths Balls™ : Degradable Polymer Diverter Balls
Molded from our exclusive patent-pending DDP™ polymer, our degradable diverter balls are available in 1/8” size increments. These 8ths Balls™ are tested to withstand pressures exceeding 10,000 psi and degrade into a liquid.
Bubbletight’s degradable diverter balls are used to block perforations in plug-and-perf completions; as a zonal isolation tool in initial fracking and re-frac jobs.
Since we manufacture our degradable polymer diverter balls in-house, we can offer them for prices far lower than our competition. We maintain stock of standard 0.875” diverter ball size. Custom sizes and specifications are available.
