Abstract
A rolling bearing comprises races including an inner race and an outer race formed of an alloy steel material; and a plurality of rolling elements formed of a ceramic material and interposed between the inner race and the outer race in such a manner as to be capable of rolling, wherein at least one of the inner race and the outer race is formed of an alloy steel containing 0.7-1.5 wt. % Si, 0.5-2.0 wt. % Cr, and 0.5-2.0 wt. % Mo in a steel, and is subjected to carbonitriding treatment on the surface of the alloy steel material. The rolling bearing excels in the durability and heat resistance even if it is used in a high-temperature high-speed environment, and does not cause a noise fault.
