316 stainless steel balls are similar to the AISI 304 stainless Steel ball, it has a better resistance to the corrosion under particular circumstances and this is mainly due to the addition of molybdenum. At first studied to resist to the corrosion of compounds with sulfuric acid, it is now primarily used for application in paper-industry, in food industry and for other process of industrial chemistry, concerning its general resistance to acids, barring the hydrochloric one. The AISI 316 Steel is certainly more magnetic than the AISI 304 one. The AISI 316 stainless steel, universally considered non magnetic.
