Abstract

See full text

A method of increasing white etching cracks robustness of a roller bearing. The method comprises the steps of heating the roller bearing to a temperature of between 100° C. and 200° C. for a duration of time between 5 minutes and 2 hours while bringing the bearing raceway surface in contact with a chemical additive and forming a white layer on a bearing raceway surface of the roller bearing and/or a material zone at the bearing raceway surface which has a lower yield point or yield stress than the original material of the roller bearing.
