Default rod end balls - alternative materials?

Hey team,
I see that there are a lot of DIY rod instructions out there for various versions of alloy linkages but all use a bought rod end. What if I want to cast an alloy ladder style rod and then put my own balls in it? What is the actual size of that ball and can you buy them as a part? Is there any form of ceramic, silicone, carbon fibre material that would be superior to the steel balls?
Thanks for any and all advice,
sub
