Heat-treatable steels, alloy steels and free-cutting steels — Part 17: Ball and roller bearing steels

This document specifies the technical delivery requirements for five groups of wrought ball and roller bearing steels as listed in Table 3, namely

—     through-hardening bearing steels (steels with about 1 % C and 1 % to 2 % Cr),

—     case-hardening bearing steels,

—     induction-hardening bearing steels (unalloyed and alloyed),

—     stainless bearing steels, and

—     high-temperature bearing steels.

This document is applicable to the products and heat-treatment conditions given in Table 1 and the surface conditions given in Table 2.
