A2 Stainless Steel Angular Contact Ball Bearing — ISO / DIN (Series 109) pairs the standard ISO / DIN with a A2 Stainless Steel base material. The sections below cover why engineers select this grade for angular contact ball bearing — iso / din (series 109), its corrosion and temperature behavior, and the sizes available.
Why Choose A2 Stainless Steel for Angular Contact Ball Bearing — ISO / DIN (Series 109)
The most common stainless grade for indoor and general outdoor fasteners. For angular contact ball bearing — iso / din (series 109), this matters when good general corrosion resistance is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | A2-70 (304) |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Largely non-magnetic |
| Service temperature | approx. -200 °C to +400 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Good general corrosion resistance |
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
Two important notes for stainless angular contact ball bearing — iso / din (series 109): (1) stainless can gall on stainless threads under load — use a thread lubricant or anti-galling compound, especially for M6 and below; (2) when joined to aluminum or galvanized steel, stainless can drive galvanic corrosion of the less-noble metal in wet service — isolate with a coating or sleeve where appropriate.
Comparable Grades
For Angular Contact Ball Bearing — ISO / DIN (Series 109), the alternative stainless grade is A4 (316). A2 (304) suits general indoor and outdoor service; A4 (316) adds molybdenum for marine and chloride environments. Where higher strength matters more than corrosion, switch to plated alloy-steel class 8.8 or 10.9.
