This standard specifies the technical requirements and test methods of the annealed, quenched and tempered rolling bearing ring and rolling element (hereinafter referred to as "bearing parts") made from GCr15, GCr15SiMn, GCr15SiMo and GCr18Mo steels which meet those specified in GB/T 18254-2002.
This standard is applicable to the heat treatment quality test of bearing parts during process and finished parts made from above-mentioned steels and also applicable to the heat treatment quality test of bearing parts made from other high-carbon chromium steels. The bearing parts with special requirements shall be in accordance with corresponding product drawings.
