Set of 40x Stainless steel bearing balls in 8mm to mix paints. These mixing balls are coming with a special coat to make them completely paint-proof proof which will avoid the rusting process after long periods of contact with paints that may ruin the paint colors. They are not magnetic but they will be attracted by magnets.

They are suitable for either personal or industrial uses in order to guarantee a proper mixture of all paint contents and therefore avoid having all pigments deposited in the bottom of the pot, especially after long-term storage.

This set includes 40 stainless steel ball bearings of 8 mm, perfect for mixing and stirring paint pots such as Green Stuff World, and Citadel, among others.

The total weight of 1 ball is 2gr.
Quality SS316L

Warning on the use of stainless steel mixing balls in paint bottles

The stainless steel balls used in our products are made of 316L steel, a high-quality alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance, even in harsh environments such as seawater or chloride-rich conditions. As a result, they offer significantly better performance than other metallic balls on the market.

However, as with any stainless steel, the protective outer layer against oxidation can deteriorate over time due to various factors. Prolonged exposure to certain chemical agents may accelerate this process. In particular, the use of solvent-based paints tends to shorten the lifespan of the steel, whereas use with water-based paints, such as acrylics, contributes to longer durability. For this reason, we recommend replacing the balls every 6–8 years, depending on the type of paint used and storage conditions.

To ensure product longevity and prevent additional damage, do not insert more than one ball per bottle. Impact between balls may damage the surface and promote the onset of corrosion.
