Cronitect® New high performance corrosion-resistant steel for rolling bearings

Materials that are resistant to overrolling, wear and corrosion are a basic precondition for rolling bearings that must function reliably even under extreme operating conditions and in some cases under poor lubrication conditions (lubricant starvation) or even dry running. The new rolling bearing steel Cronitect® from the Schaeffler Group is the product of logical further development of solutions already offered in the Schaeffler product portfolio. Cronitect® indicates the combination of a martensitic hardening, corrosionresistant steel that is generally available in most cases with a thermochemical surface layer treatment method and is characterised by very high corrosion resistance as well as high wear and overrolling resistance.
