Hardness

Your choice of petanque boules should be based on several factors.

Your playing style (pointer, shooter, all-rounder) will determine:
- the required bounce (hard, semi-soft, soft, or very soft) - the weight of your boule (heavier for pointers and lighter for shooters) The size of your hand will determine the diameter of the boule.

How to choose the right size

The boule’s hardness is expressed in HRC units or kg/mm².
For example, 45 HRC corresponds to 146 kg/mm². 

The higher the number, the harder the boule. The harder the boule, the less likely it is to get damaged and the higher its elasticity.

What does hardness mean for a petanque boule?

Our competition petanque boules are hollow. This is our manufacturing process: - A lump of steel is heated to +/- 1,000°C and flattened, then stamped or forged into a hemisphere. - The hemispheres are machined inside, welded together, and rotated until they form a sphere. - The boule is then engraved, baked, and dipped into water. - Finally, they are polished or varnished and then inspected.

How competition-approved Geologic boules are made

After each match, wipe away dust with a clean cloth. Oil your petanque boules once a month to prevent them from rusting. Regular cleaning lengthens the lifespan of your petanque boules while keeping them in shape for competition.

How to clean your petanque boules

The jack has a metal insert inside it so it can be picked up with a magnet.

The injected material is impact resistant.

This jack cannot be used in official competitions.

Use restriction

The heat treatment on these steel boules help them withstand impacts.

Stop bending down! These boules can be lifted with a magnetic boule lifter.
