Steel Ball

Steel Balls (鉄球) are versatile weapons designed to facilitate Spin, featured in the seventh part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run. In two types, they belong mainly to Gyro Zeppeli and Wekapipo.

Summary
The Zeppeli Family's Steel Balls are polished, highly spherical balls of steel, about the size of a baseball or boule. They are grooved on opposite faces by two large hexagons, almost joined by lines crossing the balls between their corners.

These Steel Balls are designed to facilitate a powerful and versatile form of Spin focused on the manipulation of human or animal anatomy and various organ systems. They may be thrown far and with force, and maintain a lengthy, regular Spin, able even to boomerang after impact to the catch of their user.

They are used originally by the executioners serving the royal family of Naples, handed down through the generations of the Zeppeli Family. The techniques of the Steel Ball were developed with the aim of finding an honorable method of execution.

They have an effective range of around 20 to 30 meters.
