⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ James Carter - Senior Mechanical Engineer, Aerospace Manufacturing
"We've integrated the Advanced Model silicon nitride ceramic balls into our high-speed turbine bearings, and the performance has been outstanding. After 7 months of continuous operation at 1300°C, there’s zero sign of wear or thermal deformation. The 1840 HV hardness and 1400°C tolerance are game-changers for our heat-intensive applications. No more frequent replacements like with steel bearings."Purchase Date: August 2024 | Usage Period: 7 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Elena Petrova - Plant Manager, Ceramics Manufacturing Facility
"Switching to Baibo’s Pro Model ceramic balls for our sintering furnace fixtures was one of the best decisions we made this year. The pH 1–12 corrosion resistance handles our aggressive chemical environment flawlessly, and they’ve maintained structural integrity even after 500+ thermal cycles. The 1600°C max temperature rating gives us a critical safety margin. Custom 12mm balls fit perfectly into our existing setup."Purchase Date: February 2025 | Usage Period: 4 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ David Lin - R&D Technician, Micro-Machinery Lab
"We needed ultra-precise 0.8mm ceramic balls for a prototype sensor assembly. Baibo delivered with perfect dimensional consistency and polished finish. They’re non-magnetic and electrically insulating—critical for our application. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the lead time for custom orders (3 weeks), but the quality justifies the wait."Purchase Date: November 2024 | Usage Period: 6 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Maria Gonzalez - High-Voltage Systems Engineer
"Used the Advanced Model as insulating components in a high-voltage switchgear system. The 12kV/mm dielectric strength exceeded our design requirements, and their thermal stability ensures no degradation during load spikes. RoHS and EPR compliance made integration into our EU-certified systems seamless. These are now our standard for all new insulator designs."Purchase Date: May 2025 | Usage Period: 2 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Tom Reynolds - DIY Machinist & Ceramic Artist
"Bought a small batch of 5mm Base Model balls for my home kiln fixtures and a custom ball bearing project. For a hobbyist, the 1600 HV hardness and 1200°C rating are overkill in the best way—nothing I’ve used compares. They’re brittle if dropped, yes, but that’s expected with ceramics. Great value for small-scale, high-performance needs."Purchase Date: January 2025 | Usage Period: 6 months

Dr. Alan Zhou - Advanced Ceramics Research Lead
"Silicon nitride ceramic balls represent the next generation of industrial components. Baibo’s Pro Model, with its 30% performance advantage over standard ceramics and ISO 6508-1 exceeding hardness, sets a new benchmark. For applications above 1200°C or in chemically aggressive environments, this is the only viable long-term solution."
Linda Foster - Plant Reliability Consultant
"After auditing over 30 manufacturing sites, I consistently recommend high-grade silicon nitride components to reduce downtime. Baibo’s precision tolerances and corrosion resistance directly translate to lower maintenance costs and longer equipment life—especially in furnace and grinding applications where metal bearings fail prematurely."
