Bearing steel is mainly used for manufacturing mechanical components such as bearings, gears, and chains.

1、 Definition and classification of bearing steel

Bearing steel is an alloy steel with special mechanical properties, and its main elements are carbon (C), chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), silicon (Si), molybdenum (Mo), etc. Under different composition ratios, different types of bearing steels can be obtained, such as high carbon chromium steel, high carbon steel, high chromium stainless steel, etc.

2、 Characteristics of Bearing Steel

Bearing steel has high hardness, high strength, high wear resistance, high corrosion resistance, good toughness, and machinability. These characteristics make bearing steel an ideal material for manufacturing high-quality mechanical components.

3、 Application fields of bearing steel

1. Automotive industry: Bearing steel is widely used in automotive engine, transmission system, braking system, steering system and other components, such as bearings, gears, chains, wheel hubs, etc.

2. Mechanical manufacturing industry: Bearing steel is also widely used in the mechanical manufacturing industry, such as in machine tools, robots, molds, ships, conveyors, and other fields.

3. Aerospace industry: Bearing steel is also widely used in the aerospace industry, such as bearing steel materials used in the manufacture of high-pressure turbines in aircraft engines.

4. Other fields: Bearing steel can also be used to manufacture steel balls, bearing seats, bearing pads, guide rails, and other products.

【 Conclusion 】 Bearing steel is an alloy steel with special properties, widely used in mechanical manufacturing, automotive industry, aerospace industry and other fields, mainly for manufacturing mechanical components such as bearings, gears, chains, etc.
