Balls made from this material offer excellent chemical resistance to corrosion against organic chemicals, oxidising solutions, food products and sterilising solutions. They also offer resistance to sulphuric acid and are generally less magnetic than all other stainless/chrome materials. Common applications include chemical, paper and textile industries and the ‘L’ type AISI 316 material is also used in the medical industry due to its lower carbon content.
