Product category imageProduct overview
We manufacture carbon steel balls by material family and processing requirement. Choose low or high carbon steel, then define the required hardening, plating and dimensional tolerance.
Material & condition comparison
On small screens, scroll the table horizontally to see all columns.
| Material / condition | Characteristics | Typical applications |
|---|---|---|
| Low carbon · AISI 1010 / 1015 | Ductility and economy for general components; properties depend on delivery condition. | Hardware, bicycle parts, furniture and drawer mechanisms. |
| High carbon · AISI 1085 | Higher hardness and wear resistance with appropriate heat treatment. | Mechanical components with wear and load requirements. |
| Soft / unhardened condition | A processing condition, separate from the steel designation; lower hardness for further forming. | Welding, forming and deformation processes, subject to material and process selection. |
