Carbon Balls
Carbon alloy balls are available in the following
type :
Low Carbon Steel Balls (case hardened):
The main feature of this ball is the carbonised case
with a soft core. This design lends resistance to
shock loads and surface wear while providing good
load carrying ability. Balls of this type are generally
used in applications where there are only moderate
loads and slow rotating parts.
High Carbon Steel Balls (through hardened):
Balls of this material have the advantage of being
through hardened and will take higher loads and provide
longer life than case hardened balls, for such applications
as the cycle industry. These balls are substantially
cheaper than balls manufactured from high carbon chrome
alloy steels.
