Abstract: The invention relates to a carburizing bearing steel and a preparation method thereof. The carburizing bearing steel of the invention comprises: 0.18˜0.24 wt % of C, 0.4˜0.6 wt % of Cr, 0.20˜0.40 wt % of Si, 0.40˜0.70 wt % of Mn, 1.6˜2.2 wt % of Ni, 0.15˜0.35 wt % of Mo, 0.001˜0.01 wt % of S, 0.001˜0.015 wt % of P, 0˜0.20 wt % of Nb, 0˜0.20 wt % of V and the remaining is iron, wherein the contents of Nb and V are not 0 at the same time. In the invention, an appropriate amount of Nb and V is added in combination with other elements so as to refine the grain size, inhibit the generation of large granular carbides in the steel during carburization and improve the uniformity of the microstructure of steel materials, thus further enhancing the contact fatigue life of the carburizing bearing steel.

Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of microstructure refinement and homogenization of bearing steel, and specifically relates to a high-carbon bearing steel and a method of preparing same. The high-carbon bearing steel of the invention has the following chemical composition: C: 0.80˜1.20 wt %, Cr: 0.40˜2.0 wt %, Mn: 0.15˜0.75 wt %, Si: 0.15˜0.75 wt %, Nb: 0˜0.20 wt %, Mo: 0˜0.20 wt %, V: 0˜0.20 wt %, P?0.015 wt %, S?0.01 wt %, the remaining is Fe and unavoidable impurities; the contents of Nb, Mo and V are not 0 at the same time. According to the invention, microalloying elements such as Nb, Mo and V, in combination with other elements, are added into the high-carbon bearing steel to effectively refine the bearing steel matrix and promote the precipitation of a large amount of nano-carbides, thereby enhancing the contact fatigue life of the high-carbon bearing steel.
