LOW CARBON STEEL BALLS
AISI 1010/1015 (C10 - C15)

Balls in these materials are case-hardened only (surface heat treatment).

Low carbon steel balls offer considerable savings in all those applications which do not require the use of through hardened balls.

The most common applications include furniture wheels, bearings for drawers, locks, grease nipple, sliding blocks, toys.

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

Equivalent materials to international standards:
AISI 1010/1015 - W 1.0401 -JIS SWRM 12 - ASTM A/29

SOFT LOW CARBON STEEL BALLS - AISI 1010 (C10) - W.1.0010

These balls are not heat treated and therefore in soft condition. This is required for all those applications where hardness is not important. Generally used for welding.
