The most-used names for this grade.About Bearing steels
Bearing steels are high-carbon steels designed for rolling-element bearings and other components exposed to repeated contact loading. They are characterised by high hardness, wear resistance and resistance to rolling-contact fatigue after suitable heat treatment. They are used for bearing rings, races and rolling elements where reliable operation under cyclic loads is required.
This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade.

The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

Physical & mechanical properties
An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.

Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ.
