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.
