Materials:
| Housing: | up to size 12 turned, from free-cutting steel to 9SMnPb28K, |
| from size 14 forged, from heat-treated steel to C22 | |
| Ball: | bearing steel to 100Cr6, hardened, ground, polished |

|
| The base in
the steel housing is cylindrically turned from one side and, starting
from the centre line, it runs to suit the ball's contour (see drawing
above). Hence a high axial load towards the turned radius is possible. |
