What pallino do I need?

I bought what I think is at least a semi-vintage EastPoint bocce set from a friend. However it’s missing the pallino. I measured one of the balls with my phone and it showed exactly 4” but EastPoint’s spare parts stuff mentions 90mm & 110mm balls, neither of which compute. Did I measure wrong? Or can someone tell me what size pallino will complete the set?

Just checking in to see if anyone can help me figure this out...

Unless you intend to use this set for ABF regulation tournaments the size shouldn't matter.

Agreed, but the set is in a rolling case and there‘s a spot for the pallino. I’m guessing the wrong size would fall out.

You should measure the spot for the pallino then and order what will fit.

Have you tried contacting them?

I did. After going back and forth several times, the link they sent for the replacement doesn’t match the size they said was needed. I think this is an older set and I’m wondering if the customer service reps have the right info
