- FAQ -

Q1. What is 100Cr6 bearing steel?

100Cr6 (Material No. 1.3505) is a high-carbon chromium alloy steel widely used for anti-friction bearings in European standards. It contains approximately 1.0% carbon and 1.5% chromium, providing through-hardening capability and excellent wear resistance after heat treatment.

Q2. What standards does your 100Cr6 bearing steel tube comply with?

Our 100Cr6 bearing steel tube is manufactured and tested in accordance with EN ISO 683-17 (Heat-treated steels, alloy steels and free-cutting steels — Part 17: Ball and roller bearing steels) and DIN 17230. Full MTC is provided with every shipment.

Q3. What sizes and forms are available?

We supply 100Cr6 seamless bearing steel tubes with outer diameter ranging from 10mm to 250mm and wall thickness from 2mm to 30mm. Available forms include hot-rolled, cold-drawn, and precision finished tubes. Cut-to-length service is available per customer specification.

Q4. What are typical applications of 100Cr6 bearing steel tube?

100Cr6 tube is primarily used for manufacturing bearing inner and outer rings, bearing races, bushings, roller sleeves, and precision cylindrical components requiring high hardness, dimensional accuracy and wear resistance.

Q5. How does 100Cr6 compare to other common bearing steel grades?

100Cr6 is the European equivalent of AISI 52100 (US), SUJ2 (Japan) and GCr15 (China). All are high-carbon chromium bearing steels with very similar composition and performance, designed for rolling-element bearing applications.
