Stainless steel bearing components
Delta produces a variety of stainless steels commonly specified in bearing manufacture.
- Inner and Outer Rings or Races — common to all ball bearings, these rings provide a pathway on which the balls roll.
- Retainer Rings – used in many bearing designs to hold components onto a shaft or into a bore
Common alloys used
- 440C Stainless Steel — This high carbon stainless steel has the hardenability and wear resistance specified in many bearing designs.
- 304 and 316 Stainless Steel – bearing components made of 300 series stainless steel have the corrosion resistance necessary in some environments and applications.
- 17-4PH Stainless Steel – another versatile, heat treatable stainless typically specified for bearing component applications requiring both strength and corrosion resistance.
