bearing balls are generally made from stainless steel. Low alloy martensitic chrome steel or AISI 100 Cr6 is one of the most common types. These versatile components come in a vast selection of sizes, making it easy to find replacement balls for ball bearings for dozens of products. Diameters range from 0.250 – 300mm or 1/62 to 12 inches with an ultimate compressive strength of 2500 – 2600 and hardness of 60 – 66 on the Rockwell table. Other popular options in balls for bearings include 100CrMo7-3 chrome steel balls for applications where larger replacement balls for ball bearings with a higher core hardness are required.

Wave washers, also commonly referred to as wave springs or coiled wave springs, are used to absorb stress due to axial compressive loads, acting as a cushion. The waves of the wave washer provide 3, 4, or 6-point contact that results in greater load-bearing capacity and a medium range of deflection.

What to include in your RFQ →

Documentation & RFQ readiness

BOLTON sources and supplies to specification. Documentation availability depends on the product, its manufacturer/supplier source and your stated requirement, and can be confirmed during quotation. To get an accurate quote quickly, include:

  • The exact manufacturer part number (MPN) and quantity required
  • Any drawing, specification or standard that applies, where relevant
  • Required documentation — e.g. certificate of conformity, datasheet, test report, SDS/TDS, calibration certificate or traceability, where applicable
  • Delivery location and required-by date
