HIGH CARBON STEEL BALLS
AISI 1045-1086 (C45-C86)

Balls made of this kind of material offer the advantage of a through hardness and consequently higher wear and load resistance compared to normal case-hardened carbon balls.

In addition, high-carbon steel balls are cheaper than 100 Cr6 chrome balls and are perfectly suitable for various industrial applications which do not need the use of higher cost chrome balls.

The most common applications include bicycle accessories, ball bearings for furniture, sliding guides, hardware and furniture fittings, conveyor rollers, high load carrying capacity wheels, ball bearings in general.

Diameters: from mm 0.5 to mm 50

Precision grades:
Grades 28 - 40 - 80 - 100 - 200 - 500 - 700 - 1000 as per ISO 3290 - DIN 5401 - AFBMA
