What's the opinion on Torlon check balls vs steel? Do they save wear on the plate, and do they last?

The do not damage the plate, The seal really well, But.....They will wear down & pass through the plate eventually.

The trick is to angle/chamfer the edge of the holes the balls seat against on the plate, Some Emroy cloth on the end of a push rod works well.
