STAINLESS STEEL BALLS
AISI 316 AISI 316-L (V4A)
They are Austenitic stainless steels with features similar to AISI 302/304/304L series, but they can be anti-magnetic and, above all, the addition of molybdenum offers greater chemical resistance, particularly in sulphuric acid concentration.
All balls can be annealed and passivated.
The most common applications includes their use in the chemical, paper and textile industries (valves, pumps and bearings).
