BALCO INDUSTRIES
stainless steels offer excellent corrosion resistance in
organic, acid, industrial and marine environments. The
non-magnetic properties combined with exceptionally high
toughness at all temperatures make these steels an
excellent selection for many applications. AISI 316
stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance due
to the higher nickel and molybdenum content.

- General
Information
Similar to type 302, but the addition of Molybdenum
improves to corrosion resistance. Deceloped to effectively
resist the corrosion of sulphuric acid compounds, it is
now used bery extensively.
- Material
Characteristics
This
steel has higher tensile and creep strength at
elevated temperature than conventional 18-8 alloys.
All balls of this material are passivated.
- Hardness
Annealed
Rockwell B- 75 to 95 measured on parallel flats, not
annealed, Rockwell C-39 maximum measured on parallel
flats.
