What is a GCr15 Bearing Steel Ball?

The GCr15 Bearing Steel Ball (equivalent to AISI 52100) is the industry standard for high-load bearing applications. Characterized by a high carbon and chromium content, these spheres offer exceptional hardness (HRC 60-66) and wear resistance. Unlike standard carbon steel, GCr15 maintains structural integrity under extreme rotational stress.

For procurement managers seeking consistent spherical precision and material purity, our large-diameter chrome steel balls (31mm-47mm) provide the stability required for wind turbines, automotive hubs, and heavy mining machinery.

Wholesale & Manufacturing FAQ

What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for 45mm-47mm balls?

As a direct manufacturer, our MOQ typically starts at 500kg - 1000kg depending on current stock levels and production schedules. This ensures the most competitive factory-gate pricing.

Do you provide material certifications?

Yes, every batch is accompanied by a full Mill Test Certificate showing chemical composition (C, Cr, Mn, Si) and physical properties to ensure compliance with AISI 52100 standards.

How do you ensure the balls do not rust during shipping?

All GCr15 balls are washed, dried, and coated with anti-rust oil before being packed in VCI paper and sealed in plastic bags within standard wooden boxes or drums.

Can you produce to specific G-grades?

Absolutely. Our facility is equipped to produce precision grades ranging from G10 for high-precision bearings to G1000 for grinding media applications.

What is the typical lead time for a container load?

Standard lead time is 15-25 days for production. However, for common sizes like 45mm, we often maintain safety stock for faster dispatch.

Do you offer samples for testing?

Yes, we provide free samples for quality verification. Clients are typically responsible for the courier shipping costs.
