## 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.

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Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

## Chemical composition

What this alloy is

Fe Cr C Si

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 79.3 % Cr — 17 % C — 1.1 % Si — 1 % Traces & impurities · 1.7 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.95–1.2 — Unusual |
| Si | ≤ 1 |
| Mn | ≤ 1 |
| P | 0.04 |
| S | 0.015 |
| Cr | 16–18 |
| Mo | 0.4–0.8 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum

0.01 % 0.1 % 1 % 10 % 100 %

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.

| Element | As published source text, verbatim | Min% by weight | Max% by weight | Bound |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C | 0,95-1,20 | 0.950 | 1.200 | Range |
| Si | ≤1,00 | — | 1.000 | Max |
| P | 0,04 | 0.040 | 0.040 | Exact |
| S | 0,015 | 0.015 | 0.015 | Exact |
| Cr | 16,0-18,0 | 16.000 | 18.000 | Range |
| Mn | ≤1,00 | — | 1.000 | Max |
| Mo | 0,40-0,80 | 0.400 | 0.800 | Range |

The published column is the source string byte-for-byte, decimal comma and all; Min and Max are the parsed bounds. Elements not listed have no value on file — they are omitted, never inferred.

## Predicted transformation temperatures

Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: Ni.

## Physical & mechanical properties

Density 7,85 g/cm³ Exact

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.

## Similar grades — and why

Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.3, a shared category, and a published range for Cr / Mo that overlaps this grade’s. These are neighbours in composition space — they are not equivalents, and none is claimed to be interchangeable with this grade.
