Just wondering if L'Hotellier fittings wear? I can't seem to find what

tolerance is for the ball diameter. Just curious.

I am aware of the min travel of the locking plate of 2mm.

Thanks

L'Hotellier don't specify a limit on the diameter itself, they specify a
limit on out-of-round. Their directions a
"The variation between several measures of the ball diameter must not
exceed 0.1 mm.
This check aim is to detect abnormal ball wear"

You should be able to download L'Hotellier's instructions from the
internet - they usually form part of the ADs issued on this equipment!
