Stainless steel balls are manufactured from steel containing at least 12% chromium, and sometimes other alloying elements, making them corrosion-resistant and durable. They come in various grades and can be magnetic or non-magnetic, depending on their heat treatment and composition. These balls are widely used in applications requiring durability, low friction, and resistance to corrosion, such as bearings, valves, and medical equipment.
Key Features and Properties:
Corrosion Resistance:
Stainless steel balls are known for their resistance to rust, staining, and corrosion, making them suitable for harsh environments.
Tensile Strength:
They also have high tensile strength, even at low temperatures.
Hardness:
The hardness of stainless steel balls can vary depending on the heat treatment (annealed, cold worked, hardened) and grade, with hardness values ranging from 10-25 HRC (annealed) to 25-39 HRC (cold worked).
Applications:
Stainless steel balls are used in a wide range of applications, including:
Bearings:They are a key component in various ball bearings, providing smooth and efficient rotation.
Valves:Used in valves for precise flow control and resistance to corrosion.
Medical Equipment:Employed in medical instruments and devices due to their antibacterial and hypoallergenic properties.
Food Processing:Used in food processing equipment for their resistance to corrosion and hygiene.
Industrial Applications:Found in pumps, sprayers, and other industrial machinery.
Types of Stainless Steel Balls:
High Chrome (Martensitic):
These balls are characterized by their high chromium content, providing good corrosion resistance and hardness.
High Chrome-Nickel (Austenitic):
This type contains both chromium and nickel, enhancing corrosion resistance and toughness.
Specific Grades:
Common grades include SS 304, SS 316, and SS 316L, each with specific properties and applications.
Examples of Applications:
Ball Bearings:Used in various machinery and equipment for smooth and efficient rotation.
Valve Components:Employed in valves for precise flow control and durability.
Medical Equipment:Used in medical instruments and devices due to their biocompatibility and corrosion resistance.
Marine Applications:Used in marine equipment and components exposed to saltwater, benefiting from their resistance to chloride-induced corrosion.
