Flying Saucer Balls

Flying Saucer Stainless Steel Ball(SUS304,SUS316) is a type of ball made from stainless steel

Flying Saucer Ball

The flying saucer ball is called the flying saucer ball or saucer-shaped ball because it looks like a flying saucer. Its purpose is mainly used for removing blemishes and polishing of various hardware parts, especially for irregular shapes.

How to Build Stainless Steel Flying Saucer Ball

Cold Heading

The cold heading uses equipment. The purpose is to be able to punch the steel wire out of the qualified ball blank. After the steel ball is cold heading, the next processing process is carried out.

Screening

Screening, the balls after the hard grinding is initially screened through the screening machine, and the unqualified ball will be eliminated.

Polish Steel Balls

Polishing ball process is to initially polish the ball blank into a circle. It's a very important process.

Soft Grinding

The machine M360 is ued for soft grinding.

Oil Removal

Oil removal equipment, put the ball into the equipment, after screening, separate the ball from the oil.

Hard Grinding

Hard grinding is the method of grinding the ball after heat treatment with grinding wheel in the grinding machine. Its role is to further improve the accuracy and surface quality.

Our Factory

Changzhou Risheng Steel Ball Co., Ltd. is located on the eastern shore of Taihu Lake, adjacent to Shanghai, with convenient transportation. Since its establishment in June 1995, the company has been dedicated to developing and manufacturing steel balls, integrating research and development with trade.

For many years, Risheng building on the foundation of the Wujin Metal Ball Research Institute, has been committed to researching steel ball manufacturing technology. We primarily produce shaft steel balls (AISI 52100), stainless steel balls (AISI 201/304/316/420/440/430), and carbon steel balls (AISI 1015/1045/1085) with diameters ranging from 0.8mm to 25.4mm, with precision grades up to G10, G40, and G100. We also offer custom specifications for alloy steel balls, military steel balls, copper balls, UFO balls, ceramic balls, and other metal balls. 

Packaging & Deliver of Flying Saucer Stainless Steel Ball

High-strength inner packaging: Shockproof foam bags or custom plastic boxes are used to secure each Flying Saucer stainless steel ball in place, protecting it from impacts and scratches.

Moisture-proof protection: A moisture-proofing agent is added to effectively prevent the impact of moisture on the product during transportation.

Sturdy outer packaging: Thickened corrugated cardboard boxes or wooden pallets (for large orders) are used to ensure safe long-distance transportation.

Clear labeling: Product specifications, quantity, and drop warnings are clearly marked on the outer packaging box for easy verification and safe handling.

FAQ of Flying UFO Stainless Steel Ball
  • Q What is the load capacity and how is it calculated?

    A
    Load capacity depends on size and material (40–275 lbs per unit). It's rated for even distribution across multiple units—e.g., 4–6 transfers support 500+ lbs total. Factors like speed, incline, and environment reduce effective capacity; always derate by 20–30% for dynamic loads
  • Q What are the benefits of stainless steel over other materials?

    A
    • Corrosion Resistance: Ideal for wet, chemical, or outdoor environments; prevents rust unlike carbon steel.
    • Durability: High hardness reduces wear; low torque for smooth operation and vibration neutralization.
    • Hygiene and Cleanliness: Non-magnetic, easy to clean; recommended for food-grade or medical applications.
    • Versatility: Omnidirectional movement with a low profile; available in dishwasher-safe variants for pet bowls (a niche use).
  • Q What materials are used in stainless steel flying saucer balls?

    A

    Common grades include:

    • Main Ball: 420 stainless steel for durability and hardness.
    • Cover/Retainer: 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
    • Cup/Housing: 410 stainless steel for strength; carbon steel housings are available for non-corrosive needs. Alternatives like 201 or 301 stainless steel are used for cost-sensitive applications, while nylon or carbon steel options exist for lighter loads.
  • Q What are the main applications of stainless steel flying saucer balls?

    A
    • Material Handling: Used in ball transfer tables, turntables, cargo rolling decks, and air cargo systems for omnidirectional load movement (e.g., European air cargo containers).
    • Polishing and Grinding: Ideal for milling media in hardware polishing, especially for irregular or anomalous workpieces; removes burrs and achieves smooth finishes in metal processing.
    • Other Uses: Conveyor systems, sorting platforms, and lifting equipment; stainless steel variants excel in corrosive environments like food processing or outdoor settings.
  • Q What is a stainless steel flying saucer ball?

    A

    A stainless steel flying saucer ball is a compact, disc-shaped bearing or grinding media made primarily from corrosion-resistant stainless steel (e.g., grades 304, 410, or 420). It functions as a ball transfer unit for smooth, multi-directional movement in conveyors or as polishing media for hardware surfaces. The "flying saucer" name comes from its UFO-like profile, allowing it to recess into surfaces for flush installation.
