The centerline average roughness of the raceway surface of at least the fixed ring of bearing rings is controlled to be 0.025 to 0.075 mumRa, thereby suppressing the rotation slip of the rolling elements so as to prevent flaking that is accompanied by a structural change. This enables prolongation of the life of bearings. At least the fixed ring of the bearing rings contains, as alloy ingredients at a ratio of from 0.50 to 1.20% by mass of carbon, from 0.10 to 1.50% by mass of silicon, from 0.1 to 2.0% by mass of manganese, from 3.0 to 6.0% by mass of chromium, 2.0% by mass or less of molybdenum, and 1.0% by mass or less of vanadium, whereby the necessary hardness is obtained and the structure is stabilized. This enables prolongation of the life of bearings.
