ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

SIST EN ISO 683-17:2015
ISO 683-17:2014(E)
6.3.2 Particular surface conditions
If agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order, the products shall be delivered in one of the particular
surface conditions given in Table 2, lines 3 to 9.6.3.3 Traceability of the cast
Each product shall be traceable to the cast, see Clause 10.
7 Requirements
7.1 Chemical composition and hardenability
7.1.1 General
Table 1 gives a survey of combinations of usual heat-treatment conditions at delivery, product forms
and requirements according to Tables 3 to 6 (chemical composition, hardenability, maximum hardness,
hardness range).7.1.2 Chemical composition
The chemical composition determined by cast analysis shall comply with the values in Table 3.
Permissible deviations between the limiting values for cast analysis and the values for product analysis
are given in Table 4.The product analysis shall be carried out when specified at the time of the enquiry and order (see 9.1
and A.2).7.1.3 Hardenability
Where the steel is not ordered according to hardenability requirements, i.e. where the steel type
designations of Table 3 and not the designations given in Table 5 are applied, the requirements for
hardness specified in Table 6 (see also Table 1, column 9) apply, as appropriate, for the particular heat-
treatment condition. In this case, the values of hardenability given in Table 5 are for guidance purposes
only.Where the steel is ordered to hardenability requirements by using the designations given in Table 5 the
values of hardenability given in Table 5 apply in addition to the requirements cited in Table 1, column 9
(see footnote b to Table 3).7.1.4 Hardness
The hardness in the usual conditions of delivery is given in Table 6.
7.2 Microstructure
7.2.1 Austenitic grain size of case-hardening and induction-hardening bearing steels
Case-hardening steels and induction-hardening steels shall have a fine grain size of 5 or finer
(see ISO 643). For verification of the grain size, see A.3.7.2.2 Spheroidization and distribution of carbides
7.2.2.1 For deliveries in treatment conditions +AC and +AC+C, the carbides of the through-hardening
steels shall be spheroidized and the carbides of the stainless and high-temperature bearing steels shall
4 © ISO 2014 – All rights reserved---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 683-17:2015
ISO 683-17:2014(E)
be predominantly spheroidized. Case-hardening steels may show remnants of incompletely spheroidized
carbides. For the degree of spheroidization see A.4.7.2.2.2 For distribution of carbides, see A.5.
7.2.3 Structure of case-hardening steels in the condition +FP
The structure shall consist of ferrite-pearlite. Bainite contents up to 10 % are, however, permissible.
7.3 Non-metallic inclusions7.3.1 Microscopic inclusions
The characterization of non-metallic inclusions is critically important to the fatigue life of bearings.
Therefore all bearing steels shall have a certain degree of cleanliness. The requirements for the content
of non-metallic inclusions apply in every case; however, verification requires a special agreement, see
A.6.7.3.2 Macroscopic inclusions
If verification is agreed then the method and acceptance limits shall be agreed at the time of enquiry
and order.7.4 Internal soundness
Where appropriate, requirements relating to the internal soundness of the products shall be agreed at
the time of enquiry and order, see A.7.7.5 Surface quality
7.5.1 All products shall have a smooth surface finish appropriate to the manufacturing process applied.
7.5.2 Ground or peeled/turned or machined products shall be free from surface discontinuities
detrimental to practical use and surface decarburization.7.5.3 If hot-rolled, forged, cold-reduced or rough-machined products are ordered for peeling or grinding
to avoida) surface decarburization, and
b) surface defects
the machining allowances shall be agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order.
Alternatively, for round bars and rod, the permissible depth of surface discontinuities may be specified
in accordance with ISO 9443.7.6 Shape, dimensions and tolerances
The shape, dimensions and tolerances of the products shall comply with the requirements agreed upon
at the time of enquiry and order. The agreements shall, as far as possible, be based on corresponding
International Standards (see Annex C) or, otherwise, on suitable national standards.

the requirements shall be in accordance with the prescriptions in Table 7.8.3 Specific inspection and testing
8.3.1 Verification of the hardenability and hardness
The hardness requirements given for the relevant heat-treatment condition in Table 6 (see also Table 1,
column 9, sub-column 9.2) shall be verified.For steels ordered with the symbol +H in the designation (see Table 5), in addition, the hardenability
requirements according to Table 5 shall be verified.8.3.2 Inspection of the surface quality
Unless otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order (see A.8), the extend of testing and the test
method is left to the discretion of the manufacturer.8.3.3 Dimensional inspection
Unless otherwise agreed at the time of enquiry and order (see A.9), the number of products to be
inspected for their shape and dimensions shall be left to the discretion of the manufacturer.
