High Carbon Steel (Through Hardened)
General Information
Balls of this material have the advantage of being through hardened to HRc 60 min and will take higher loads and provide longer life than case hardened carbon balls, for such applications as the cycle industry, and yet remain substantially cheaper than balls manufactured from high carbon chrome alloy steel.
