Silicon Nitride balls are non-corrosive, anti-magnetic and excel in low noise, high rigidity, and high load carrying applications. These balls can be run dry in a vacuum environment and up to 500° F without lubrication.

Features

• Well suited for medical and test applications
• A 60% reduction in weight
• Up to two times the material hardness for tight tolerances

• A coefficient of thermal expansion that is 70% less than steel
• A temperature operating range up to 1800° F
• Silicon nitride balls are non-corrosive, anti-magnetic, and excel in low noise, high rigidity, and high load carrying applications.

Applications

• High end bearings
• Ball screws
• Valves
• Aero space bearings
• Windmill bearings
• Used where high wear, corrosion resistant, high temp and no lubrication needed.
