Gymballs – trialed and screened

In 1996, AOK began its Gymball evolution and examination plan. Ever since then world leading examining protocols has been produced for inflatable PVC devices. As a consequence of this work the MaxBall and DuraBall were presented.

Dura Ball Pro

The Dura Ball Pro has a 500kg burst resistance and will eventually deflate when severed giving the user time to get off, greatly reducing the risk of accidental injury.

Gymballs defend deformation under heavy cargo which implies that receptive directions are stimulated throughout the undivided range of motion. It is yet immune to wear and extending.

Max Ball

The Max Ball possesses a 750kg burst resistance and {will} slowly deflate when pierced enabling the user time to get off, greatly shortening the hazard of injury.

Solely tested at the University of Newcastle, Australia this ball is specifically designed for heavy free-weight coaching in a commercial environment. Its dimpled non-surface keeps the product from slipping when utilising heavy weights.

These appliances have been tested to guarantee product consistency and have variously withstood static loads well in excess of 4000kg with burst resistance to a cargo of 500kg.

This does not portray that the gymball is deflate proof but it does offer security from explosive deflation. Burst immunity shows AOK Gym balls are designed to take a minimal of 30 seconds to {deflate} if mistakenly punctured.

All gymballs made are pre-inflated and examined to endure extremely low amounts of faulty balls. Over the past 5 years AOK have had a recall rate of less than 0.2%

A gymball with burst resistivity to over 500kg may seem extreme, however when sitting on a gym ball, the impact of your weight is far broader than your body weight. This is named impact loading.

This can easily be two and a half times your body weight, so for an 80kg person using a pair of 10kg dumbbells the impingement load could easily surpass 250kg.

Normal gymballs compress under heavy loads, the MaxBall preserves round shape below heavy loads.

AOK Gymball test

A 2 inch cut was put into the gymball with a sharp knife, assuming an object puncturing a gymball on the gym floor.

A 75kg person continued sitting on the gym ball, squeezing the air to move out of it. After approximately 30 seconds, there was still enough air in the gym ball to support the user, giving them sufficient time to safely get off the gymball without incurring injury.
