Our high precision chrome steel balls are vacuum degassed, a process which removes unwanted impurities - like hydrogen and nitrogen - as well as non-metallic oxides which would otherwise weaken the steel.
The result? A standard-setting product which the ball and roller bearing industry can rely on.
Exceptionally high hardness, maintains the integrity of its shape in the toughest of environments and offers excellent resistance to wear and tear.
High Carbon Chrome Alloy balls are at the heart of many items and equipment we use every day. You'll find them in items such as automobiles, wind turbines and even skateboard bearings.
