For the ideal air pressure: buy high quality ball needle

. Decisive for optimal playing characteristics of a ball is the appropriate ball internal pressure. A hollow needle for the pump brings balls with needle valve quickly back into shape. Since ball needles can be lost quickly or unfortunately break when used carelessly, it makes sense to have a set of spare needles in stock. To keep the valve supple, it is recommended to add 3-4 drops of oil to it before pumping. A flexible tube can also protect the ball pump needle from bending or breaking. Attention, the ball should never have too high air pressure, otherwise the game ball will become egg-shaped.

What is the thread diameter of valve needles?

Ball needles can have different thread diameters, but the conventional thread of valve needles for all balls with needle valve is DIN VG 5.2, which has a 5.25 mm thread. These valve needles fit all common ball pumps. However, there are also ball needles with, among other things, the M4 or M5 thread - who is unsure, should measure the thread of the ball pump before ordering.
