Abstract
Steel tubes for bearing element parts according to the present invention, wherein the specific compositions are limited and an accumulation intensity of {211} face along with an impact property at ambient temperature in the longitudinal direction of steel tube are specified, can be provided as a source material for bearing element parts, which have excellent machinability and fatigue life in rolling contact, being incorporated without adding a free-cutting element specifically nor without reducing productivity since the spheroidizing for the same annealing duration with that of conventional spheroidizing treatment can be applied. Accordingly, by applying a manufacturing method or a cutting-machining method according to the present invention, bearing element parts such as races, rollers and shafts can be produced with less cost and efficiently.
