Common Stainless Steel Ball Transfer Unit Types
Our stainless steel ball transfer units are available in various types to meet diverse load, space, and environmental requirements. From compact designs for tight installations to heavy-duty models for high-impact handling, we offer solutions that ensure smooth, multi-directional movement in any setting.
All Stainless Steel Type
Body, housing, and ball are all made of stainless steel (e.g., SUS304 or SUS316), ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, or marine environments.
Stainless Steel Ball with Carbon Steel Housing
Cost-effective option for general industrial use, offering basic corrosion resistance.
Heavy-Duty Type
Reinforced for heavy loads and impact applications such as mold handling or aircraft tooling.
Spring-Loaded Type
Built-in spring offers shock absorption or return action, used for positioning or buffering.
Mini / Compact Type
Designed for tight spaces or cleanroom environments, often used in electronics or precision handling.
Embedded / Recessed Mount Type
Space-saving design mounted flush with surfaces, ideal for integration into automation systems.
Flange Mount Type
Easy to bolt down; commonly used on heavy-duty bases or modular conveyors.
Low-Profile Type
Compact height allows use in restricted spaces while maintaining smooth movement.
Logistics & Sortation Specialized Ball Transfer Solutions
Profab ss ball transfer units are used in a wide range of applications where smooth, multi-directional conveying and corrosion resistance are required. Examples include workpiece transfer in production and assembly lines, packaging and picking systems, inspection benches and station positioning, airport baggage handling and logistics sorting centers, as well as rolling supports for the handling of heavy-duty pallets and crates. They are particularly suitable for wet, marine, chemical, food processing and medical environments, and are often used for smooth positioning and guiding in machine conveyors, mold unloading, robot end-of-line platforms and doors and windows.
What Material Does Profab Choose
For indoor or general-purpose applications, cost-effective materials like 201 or 430 are often sufficient. In outdoor or high-humidity environments where corrosion resistance is critical, 304 or 316 is recommended, with 316 being the preferred choice for food-grade, pharmaceutical, or marine applications due to its superior resistance to chlorides. For high-load, high-precision, or wear-intensive use cases, hardened stainless steels such as 420, 440C, or 17-4PH are ideal—particularly for the main ball or internal components that require durability and strength.
Why Choose Stainless Steel Ball Transfer Unit from Profab Machine ?
Profab offers a one-stop solution for ball transfers. The surfaces of Profab ball transfers are finely machined and rust-resistant for smooth operation and responsive rolling. Supporting recessed, flanged or bolted mounting to meet a wide range of structural requirements, Profab also supports customized sizes and load ratings in small quantities to fit non-standard conveyor systems.
Direct-from-Manufacturer Advantage
We are the original manufacturer—no middlemen. Our pricing is transparent and competitive, helping you lower procurement costs while maintaining product quality.
Precision Tolerance and Wear Resistance
Each ball transfer is strictly inspected to ensure that the balls rotate freely without deviation, helping customers to realize efficient, stable and low-maintenance material movement systems.
Corrosion Resistance in Harsh Environments
Our stainless steel ball transfer units are suitable for wet, dusty or heavy-duty environments such as conveyor platforms, assembly lines, logistic equipment or food and medical workstations.
FAQ...
How are your ball transfer units mounted and secured?
Our units come in flange, round‐base, or stud‐mount designs compatible with standard panel cutouts and thread sizes. Installation instructions and torque specs are provided to ensure a flush, stable fit on tables, skids, or conveyor beds.
