A4 Stainless Steel (A4-80 (316)) is specified for marine, coastal and chemical applications. When housed (pillow block) bearing are specified in this grade, the dimensions remain per ISO / DIN; the material determines corrosion behavior (superior, including marine and chloride environments) and the service temperature range (approx. -200 °C to +400 °C). Both are covered below with the size table.
Why Choose A4 Stainless Steel for Housed (Pillow Block) Bearing — ISO / DIN (Series 124)
Specified for marine, coastal and chemical applications. For housed (pillow block) bearing — iso / din (series 124), this matters when superior, including marine and chloride environments is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | A4-80 (316) |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Largely non-magnetic |
| Service temperature | approx. -200 °C to +400 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Superior, including marine and chloride environments |
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
Two important notes for stainless housed (pillow block) bearing — iso / din (series 124): (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 Housed (Pillow Block) Bearing — ISO / DIN (Series 124), the alternative stainless grade is A2 (304). 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.
