- Technical Info
440C stainless steel balls are designed for applications that require very high hardness, strength, and wear resistance. As a martensitic stainless alloy, 440C can be heat treated to achieve the highest hardness of any stainless grade while still offering moderate corrosion resistance. These balls are widely used in precision bearings and demanding mechanical systems where durability and consistent performance are essential. Available in Grade 100 for tight dimensional accuracy and smooth rolling characteristics.
Applications: Precision bearings, valve components, knife blades, surgical instruments, chisels, gage blocks, cutlery, ball bearing races, molds, dies, measuring tools.
