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. ## Also known as 33 designations · 17 standards · nothing hidden This grade’s own name recorded in our sources as this grade’s own designation under that standard. Indicative taken from a published cross-reference table; a close match, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify against the mill certificate before ordering. Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.
