Abstract
A bearing constituent member includes a base material including steel and a carbonitrided layer that is a surface layer on the steel, the steel including 0.3 to 0.45 mass % of carbon, 0.5 mass % or lower of silicon, 0.4 to 1.5 mass % of manganese, 0.3 to 2 mass % of chromium, 0.1 to 0.35 mass % of molybdenum, 0.2 to 0.4 mass % of vanadium, and a remainder of iron and unavoidable impurities. Surface Vickers hardness at a position at a depth of 50 μm from a surface of a rolling sliding surface is 700 to 800, internal hardness is 550 to 690 in terms of Vickers hardness, and an amount of residual austenite in a range from the surface to a depth of 10 μm is at least 30 vol %.
