HEAT TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES FOR BEARING COMPONENTS

Abstract

This article explores modern heat treatment technologies applied to bearing components. Key thermal processes such as quenching, tempering, surface hardening, and carburizing are described. Their effects on the microstructure and mechanical properties are discussed. Using experimental data, graphs, and tables, the influence of thermal treatment on bearing steel is presented, with an emphasis on reducing structural defects and extending service life.Bearing, heat treatment, quenching, tempering, metallographic analysis, hardness.
