AISI304 Stainless Steel Balls
Profile
Precision AISI 304 stainless steel balls are used when
conditions require corrosion performance and toughness not
available in hardenable stainless steels. Principal applications
are in couplings, valves and pumps.
Specifications
Carbon | Nickel | Chromium | Manganese | Silicon | Phosphorus | Sulfur |
0.08% max. | 8% – 10.5% | 18% – 20% | 2.00% | 1.00% | 0.00% | 0.30% max |
Characteristics
Low magnetic permeability: annealed, 1.003; cold worked, 1.10;
severely cold worked, 10.0. High tensile strength at elevated
temperatures. AISI 304 stainless steel work-hardens rapidly.
AISI 304 stainless steel balls of this material are passivated.
Corrosion Resistance
AISI 304 stainless steel balls resist attack by oxidizing
solutions, foodstuffs, sterilizing solution and most organic
chemicals. They are susceptible to attack by halogen acids and
moderately resistant to the sulphur acids.
Typical Hardness
Annealed – Rockwell B 75-95. Not annealed – Rockwell C 25-39.
Ball Sizes
Available in sizes from 1mm to 150mm in grades 50 through 1000.
