Old Royal Hexagon Golf Ball Mold – Very Interesting !!

An original golf ball mold used in making the very unique dimple patterned golf ball – The Royal Hexagon golf ball. Also used in the PLUS SIX golf ball. I’ve also seen it on a few other brand named balls.

These come as matching halves and are made of a hardened steel and are surprisingly heavy. They are nice to display a favorite ball or use simply as a paperweight.

The interior of the mold has a telflon material that aids the manufacturers in extracting the ball from the mold.

In case you forgot about what these balls looked like – or have never seen it before, here is a photo of the ball:

I will be including a sample Royal ball – but also will be including a sample surlyn cover from today's era and a golf ball core with each mold you purchase. This is a nice thing to have on display to help you explain to friends as to how golf balls are made.

A great antique golf item!!

More history on these molds:

I found these mold from a golf ball company in Arizona that was going out of business. This was in the 1990’s.

These molds were referred to as “pucks” and they were inserted into plates that could hold up to 24 sets of molds. To manufacture the golf balls, the pucks have surlyn covers placed in each cavity and a ball core is placed inside. The ball cores can be wound cores or solid cores. These plates are then pressed together very with a very intense amount of heat and heat. The process takes only a minute or so, whereupon the plates would be separated and "whalla" - the ball would come out!
