The Outer Limits Core With a Cleaner, Angular Read
About the Outer Limits Black Hole
The Radical Outer Limits Black Hole takes the strong Outer Limits core and gives it a cleaner, more angular read. It pairs the asymmetric Outer Limits Core with the HK22 Reactive coverstock at a polished finish, so it gets down the lane cleaner than the Outer Limits Solid and finishes with a strong, defined move on medium to heavy oil and transition.
The Black Hole is the length-and-angle version of the Outer Limits. The strong asymmetric core stores energy for a defined backend with controllable flare, while the polished HK22 cover conserves that energy through the heads for a cleaner read and a sharper finish. It is the piece you move to when the Outer Limits Solid starts reading too early.
Understanding the Radical Outer Limits Asymmetric Core and Radical HK22 Reactive
Radical built the Outer Limits Black Hole for clean length and an angular backend from the Outer Limits core. Specifically, the asymmetric Outer Limits Core posts a 2.499 RG, a strong .051 differential, and a low .014 intermediate differential for high flare with a smooth, defined breakpoint, while the polished HK22 cover reads later than the solid and saves energy for a sharp move down lane. As a result, it gives you length with a strong, controllable backend on medium to heavy oil and transition. The per-weight specifications are listed below.
A Strong Asymmetric Core, Shared With the Outer Limits Solid
At the heart of the Outer Limits Black Hole is the same asymmetric Outer Limits Core used in the Outer Limits Solid. At 15 lb it measures a 2.499 RG, a strong .051 differential, and a low .014 intermediate differential, a combination that produces high track flare with a smooth, continuous breakpoint. The low intermediate differential keeps the motion even and controllable.
Radical wraps the Outer Limits core in DynamiCore for added durability and a stronger hitting ball. Pairing that strong core with a cleaner cover is what gives the Black Hole its length and a sharper, more angular finish than the solid.
A Polished HK22 Cover for Clean Length and a Strong Backend
The Outer Limits Black Hole wraps that core in Radical’s HK22 Reactive coverstock at a 1500-grit finish with factory compound. The cleaner, polished HK22 cover lets the ball conserve energy through the front of the lane, so it gets down cleaner than the Outer Limits Solid and then makes a stronger, more angular move off the friction.
That clean read and strong backend make the Black Hole the length-and-angle partner to the solid: when the solid reads too early on a drying lane, the Black Hole pushes through the heads and finishes strong. Leave it polished for length and angle, or take the surface down at your pro shop for an earlier, smoother read on more oil.

Who This Ball Is Right For
✓Tournament Players: A strong asymmetric that conserves energy for an angular backend on medium to heavy oil and transition
✓Higher-Rev Bowlers: The strong Outer Limits core and cleaner HK22 cover reward revs with length and a continuous, defined move
✓Tweener and Speed-Dominant Styles: Cleaner length through the fronts with the even, controllable shape of the Outer Limits
✓Arsenal Builders: The cleaner, longer-reading Outer Limits, paired with the early-rolling Outer Limits Solid
Good to Know Before You Buy
·Strong, aggressive motion: This is a high-flare piece built for traction. If you want a controlled, lower-hook reaction, a lower-differential ball will suit you better.
·Ships polished: The 1500 Grit + Factory Compound finish runs clean and long out of the box. For an earlier read on heavier oil, take the surface down at your pro shop.
·Asymmetric layout sensitivity: Layout choices shift the reaction more than on a symmetric ball. Match the pin and mass bias to your game with your pro shop.
·Colors vary: Actual colors vary somewhat from the photos shown; no two balls come out of the mold exactly alike.
·Tiny pit holes are normal: A few tiny pit holes in the coverstock are a normal part of the manufacturing process.
·Sold undrilled: Ships without finger holes, so it can be fitted to your hand and span.
BowlersMart Tips: Where the Outer Limits Black Hole Fits in Your Radical Arsenal
Where It Fits in Your Arsenal
In the Radical lineup, the Outer Limits Black Hole is the cleaner, more angular version of the Outer Limits Solid. They share the Outer Limits core, but the Black Hole reads later with a sharper backend. Throw the solid on fresh heavy oil, then move to the Black Hole as the lane transitions and you want more length and angle.
Surface Adjustments
The polished finish gives the Outer Limits Black Hole its clean length and angular backend. Take the surface down with a lower-grit pad for an earlier, smoother read on more oil, or keep it polished for length when the lanes dry. Have surface changes done at your pro shop for an even, consistent finish.
Coverstock Care
Wipe the HK22 cover with an approved reactive ball cleaner after every session, and deep clean it periodically. Keeping the cover fresh preserves the clean length and strong backend that define the Outer Limits Black Hole.
