Rolling bearing, and method of ultrasonically detecting flaws in bearing raceway ring of rolling bearing

摘要

Asurface to serve as a surface under ultrasonic inspection has a roughness of 0.4 mu mRa or less, and wherein all imperfections existing a controlled volume X corresponding to all cross sections of a raceway ring 1 assume a length of 0.2 mm or less as represented by the square root of areas of the imperfections. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a rolling bearing which does not become short-lived and obviates a concern about occurrence of cracking even when used in a harsh environment.
