Review: Great product. - I have been playing pickleball for a little over a year already and have tried various balls in that span. Franklin’s are still the best for its quality, speed, and color. Its playability is better than most. The durability isn’t like Selkirk or as fast as Dura’s and that’s why I like it. These balls lad me quite a while and I try to always wait for a good sale to buying them to last me until the next sale. Review: Bad Quality Control - The quality of these balls are mixed - definitely some QC issues with some balls having misaligned and visible ridges and prone to cracking. ## Features - PREMIUM QUALITY Franklin's X-40 outdoor pickleballs are carefully crafted and rigorously tested to maintain our standard of premium performance and durability that has made this ball a favorite among professional and amateur players - PRECISION DESIGN X-40 pickleballs are constructed with 40 precise, machine drilled holes for a balanced flight pattern and a firm, reliable spin that is consistent from ball to ball - OUTDOOR DURABILITY Seamless one-piece construction provides a stronger, longer lasting pickleball that resists dents and cracks in outdoor pickleball pitches - USA PICKLEBALL APPROVED These official X-40 pickleballs are approved for outdoor tournaments by USA Pickleball (USAPA) and have been voted as the official ball for both the US Open Pickleball Championships and USA Pickleball - 400 BULK PACK: this bulk pack contains (400) X-40 pickleballs, so you can fill yourself fully on balls for training sessions, games, and even tournaments ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BJXWF3Q9 | | Age Range Description | All Ages | | Age range (description) | All Ages | | Ball Type | Pickleball | | Best Sellers Rank | 801,612 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 1,302 in Tennis Balls | | Brand | Franklin Sports | | Brand Name | Franklin Sports | | Colour | Optical Yellow | | Construction Type | Molded | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 5 Reviews | | Included Components | (400) X-40 Pickleballs | | Item Diameter | 2.9 Inches | | Item Type Name | X-40 Pickleballs - 400 Pieces | | Item Weight | 26 Grams | | Item weight | 26 Grams | | League Name | US Open Pickleball Championships | | Manufacturer | Franklin Sports | | Manufacturer Part Number | 52956X | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | 52956X | | Number of Items | 400 | | Size | 400 Count | | Sport | Pickleball | | Sport Type | Pickleball | | UPC | 025725570362 | | Unit Count | 400.0 count | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** All Ages - **Brand:** Franklin Sports - **Colour:** Optical Yellow - **Item weight:** 26 Grams - **Material:** Plastic ## Images ![Franklin Sports Outdoor Pickleballs - X-40 Pickleball Balls - USA Pickleball (USAPA) Approved - US Open Ball - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Cn+3qGoiL.jpg) ![Franklin Sports Outdoor Pickleballs - X-40 Pickleball Balls - USA Pickleball (USAPA) Approved - US Open Ball - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/817CarkF04L.jpg) ![Franklin Sports Outdoor Pickleballs - X-40 Pickleball Balls - USA Pickleball (USAPA) Approved - US Open Ball - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/818Ozh6feDL.jpg) ![Franklin Sports Outdoor Pickleballs - X-40 Pickleball Balls - USA Pickleball (USAPA) Approved - US Open Ball - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81lMQcfPnHL.jpg) ![Franklin Sports Outdoor Pickleballs - X-40 Pickleball Balls - USA Pickleball (USAPA) Approved - US Open Ball - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WCdI6zHJL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: the box I purchased have wobbly balls. What are doing for customers that bought from the bad batch of balls?** A: I’m done buying X-40s. Purchased a dozen 4 months ago and have had them replaced 3 times by the seller. Every dozen has had 8 or more that wobble uncontrollably out of the box. I would highly recommend anyone in the market for a pickleball to look elsewhere until Franklin acknowledges this problem and fixes it. **Q: I just received these balls and there is an obvious seam on the outside where the two halves meet. Is this what rotationlly molded should be?** A: I had the same question, but got the answer from one of their representatives: “One-piece balls, like the X-40, are rotationally molded and will feature a mold mark where the two halves of the mold come together - similar to the edge of a waffle coming out of a waffle iron. We have this excess material removed so that it does not impact performance, but there is still a visible mark. You will notice the inside of the ball is smooth and does not feature the typical plastic weld you see on two-piece balls like our X-26.” **Q: What is the orange ball I see at outdoor venues? Is that the Franklin red ball turning to orange?** A: I see on Amazon FOUR (4) ball colors now (7/8/2021) for the outdoor Franklin 40's (F40's). Yellow and Pink have both been around for at least fours years now. However, they now have TWO Orange colored ones that they call 'EMBER' and 'LAVA' which look like two different shades of Orange to me. I have not tried the new colors. They do look nice. Finding the Orange or Lava and Ember in smaller quantities may take some looking around. They do have them all on Amazon in bulk though (a hundred at a time) cheaper than than by the dozen for sure. I see too, Ben Johns, #1 ranked men's player, is now advertising the F40's. Seems most of the venues with the better 3.5 players and up, seem to prefer the F40's, I think because they play close to the Dura 40's, but don't break as quick and are much less expensive. Some report some of these balls have a wobble problem. I am going to explore that some more. I thought it was an optical illusion, but now think maybe not. Still, I like these balls the best for the outdoors for the play and the money. I'd play the dura 40's if I had money to burn. I do not. **Q: Will these last when not in use? Want to buy 100 and keep a fair amount stored until I need them - will they "go bad"?** A: Not a direct answer to your question but out of the 100 I bought 50% had imperfections/dimples/out of round. I have not even gotten an reply or correspondence from Amazon or the manufacturer other a request to answer your question...LOL! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product. *by H***N on 29 April 2025* I have been playing pickleball for a little over a year already and have tried various balls in that span.
