A bearing steel includes 0.70 to 0.93 wt % of C, 0.15 to 0.50 wt % of Si, 0.50 to 1.10 wt % of Mn and 0.3 to 0.65 wt % of Cr, with the balance being Fe and incidental impurities, and it has the ratio Cr/C specified to fall within 0.4 to 0.7. Because of these compositional features, the generation of macro carbides is prevented and the need to perform soaking at high temperature for a prolonged time is eliminated. Further, the bearing steel saves the materials cost and the overall cost of heat treatments in the manufacture of bearings and which yet is capable of satisfying the requirements of various characteristics of bearings, as well as a rolling bearing that employs the bearing steel.
