Abstract

See full text

A surface treated bearing component and a bearing (10) including such bearing component. The bearing component may include a peripheral surface adapted for contacting a rolling body (16). A mass adjoins the surface. The surface has a plurality of visible overlapping striped regions (26, 28) generally devoid of any surface erosion. The surface may have a graphitic layer (36) formed in situ thereon. The mass portion may include a first region (30) having a depth (e.g., of about 50 to about 200 micrometers) and a first carbon content. The mass may include a second region (32) generally adjoining the first region having a depth (e.g., about 50 to about 100 micrometers) and a second carbon content less than the carbon content of the first region. A third region (34) generally adjoins the second region and has a third carbon content less than the carbon content of the first and the second region. The third region generally will have the composition and microstructure of the bulk bearing component as it existed before any surface treatment.
