A Bold-Looking, Dependable Spare Ball
About the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball
The Hammer Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball is built to do one job and do it perfectly: convert spares. Its industrial diamond-plate graphic makes it a standout on the rack, but its real value is precision: this is a plastic ball engineered to go straight, so you can pick up single pins and corner pins with a repeatable shot.
The Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball pairs a simple, low-flare core with a durable plastic coverstock. Plastic is the least aggressive coverstock material, so the ball ignores the oil pattern and travels in a straight, predictable line. It is the dedicated spare tool every complete arsenal needs, in a bold diamond-plate design.
Understanding the 3 Piece Core and Plastic (Polyester)
Hammer built the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball to go straight. Specifically, the simple core produces essentially no track flare, while the plastic cover generates very little friction with the lane. As a result, it holds a true, predictable line regardless of the oil pattern, exactly what you want when shooting spares.
A Simple, Low-Flare Core Built to Go Straight
The Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball uses a simple, low-flare core that produces essentially zero track flare. That is exactly what you want in a spare ball: the core resists hooking, so the ball holds a true, predictable line straight to your spare.
Because it does not flare, the ball rolls on a straight path regardless of the oil pattern. That predictability is the whole point of a dedicated spare ball: you can throw the same straight shot at every single-pin and corner-pin spare and trust it to get there.
A Durable Plastic Cover With Minimal Friction
The Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball is finished with a polished plastic coverstock featuring a bold diamond-plate graphic. Plastic is the least aggressive coverstock material, so it generates very little friction with the lane. The result is a clean, straight reaction that ignores the oil and goes where you aim it.
That minimal friction is exactly why plastic is the standard for spare shooting. The ball pushes straight through the fronts and resists the hook of a reactive ball, so you can line up your spares with confidence. Plastic is also extremely durable, making the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball a long-lasting, dependable tool in any bag.

BowlersMart Tips: Where the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball Fits in Your Arsenal
Where It Fits in Your Arsenal
Every complete arsenal needs a dedicated spare ball, and the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball fills that role with style. Where your reactive balls hook to the pocket, this plastic ball goes straight, so you use it for corner pins and single-pin spares where hook only adds risk. It is the simplest, most predictable ball in the bag, and one of the most important for protecting your score.
Surface Adjustments
The polished plastic surface keeps the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball clean and skidding straight. There is rarely a reason to change a spare ball’s surface, but your pro shop can re-polish it if it ever loses its shine. Keep it polished so it continues to travel straight through the oil.
Coverstock Care
Wipe the plastic cover with an approved ball cleaner after use. Plastic is durable and low-maintenance, so a quick wipe keeps the Diamond Plate Viz-a-Ball shooting straight and looking sharp for years.
