The Exclusive Lowing Products Stainless Steel Shot Bag
The BEST stainless steel ballast bag made. Our exclusive loading process eliminates the need for a fragile plastic liner.
These exact weight bags are very well suited for use in industrial weight testing, calibration, counterbalance applications and divers' weight bags. Wherever weight is being handled by people these bags will provide improved safety by reducing muscle fatigue, foot and hand injuries.

#304 or #409 Stainless Steel?
Due to the increasing costs of #304 stainless steel, we have introduced another alloy of stainless steel, #409. The #409 stainless contains an alloy of carbon steel and chromium. This is often reffered to as "magnetic stainless steel". This alloy has saved in production costs while still providing an anti-corrosive stainless steel for all but the most aggressive environments.We don't recommend the use of #409 stainless in applications were long periods of exposure to saltwater (or other corrosive liquids) will be anticipated. Our #304 Stainless bags are still the best in these environments.
