440 Stainless Steel balls are a martenistic-type
stainless steel which is used extensively in steel ball
bearing applications that require hardness, dimensional
stability, corrosion resistance and toughness. 440 Stainless
Steel is also used for corrosion-resistant ball and
check valves. 440 ball are resistant to corrosion from
fresh water, steam, crude oil, gasoline, perspiration,
alcohol, blood and food stuffs. Maximum resistance to
corrosion and tarnishing is only achieved when 440 is
fully hardened and surfaces are polished to a high luster.
440 is also magnetic.
