Certified Quality: The Foundation of Our Precision Steel Ball Production
As an ISO9001, IATF16949, ISO14001, and ISO45001 certified manufacturer, Changzhou Feige implements strict quality control systems throughout our production processes. Our “Saige” brand steel balls have gained international recognition for their consistent precision and durability, meeting the most demanding standards of global industries. The IATF16949 certification particularly demonstrates our capability to serve automotive industry clients with world-class quality management.
Our quality assurance system covers every stage from raw material inspection to final product testing. We employ advanced testing equipment including roundness measuring instruments, surface roughness testers, and hardness testers to ensure each steel ball meets specified parameters. This comprehensive quality control enables us to maintain less than 50 PPM (parts per million) defect rates in mass production.
Comprehensive Product Range: From G3 to G2000 Precision Grades
Understanding the diverse needs of global industries, we offer one of the most complete product ranges in the steel ball market:
- Material options: Bearing steel (GCr15), stainless steel (304/316/440C), carbon steel, and special alloy steels
- Size range: 0.3mm to 100mm diameter, covering both micro precision components and large industrial balls
- Precision grades: Full spectrum from G3 (highest precision) to G2000 (general industrial grade)
- Surface finishes: Polished, ground, lapped, and with various coatings like chrome plating, black oxide, etc.
This extensive product matrix allows us to serve multiple industries including automotive, aerospace, medical devices, precision instruments, and heavy machinery. For example, our G3-G10 precision balls are widely used in high-speed spindle bearings, while G100-G2000 grades serve construction machinery and conveyor systems.

FAQ
What precision grades do you offer for bearing steel balls?
We provide a complete range of precision grades from G3 (highest precision) to G2000. Our standard production covers G10, G16, G20, G28, G40, G60, G100, G200, G500, G1000, and G2000 grades, with G3-G10 available for ultra-precision applications requiring extremely tight tolerances.
How do you ensure quality consistency in mass production?
Our quality control system implements statistical process control (SPC) throughout production. We use advanced measuring equipment to monitor key parameters in real-time, with automatic rejection systems for any out-of-specification products. Additionally, we conduct 100% final inspection for high-precision orders to guarantee zero defects.
What is your minimum order quantity for custom steel balls?
The MOQ depends on the complexity of customization. For standard sizes with minor modifications, we can accept orders from 10,000 pieces. For completely custom designs requiring new tooling, the MOQ typically starts at 50,000 pieces. Our sales team can provide exact quotations based on your specific requirements.
How long does it take to produce custom steel balls?
Production lead time varies based on order quantity and customization complexity. For standard sizes, we can deliver within 15-20 days after order confirmation. Custom orders typically require 25-40 days, including tooling preparation and prototype validation. We always provide detailed production schedules at quotation stage.
Do you provide samples before mass production?
Yes, we offer free samples for testing and validation before mass production. For custom orders, we first produce prototypes according to your specifications for performance testing. Only after your approval do we proceed to mass production, ensuring the final products meet all requirements.
