A thread on here the other day asked about the origin of a set of Centennial-looking balls. Well i was bored so i did a little digging. What i found is that they are a polyester resin and not phenolic resin(the good stuff). I contacted Aramith and they answered quite quickly which i thought was cool considering they're in Belgium and the 'rona goin' on. They said the big problem with poly balls is that various fillers are used to bring the balls up to the spec weight and its these fillers that cause the table burn issues. Also said they are not suitable for commercial use, gameroom balls only. BTW, these balls are listed at $395 on-line and they can be purchased from various Asian on-line sellers for around FORTY bux. Talk about mark-up!!
