Abstract

A double row tapered roller bearing includes: an outer ring having an annular shape; an inner ring disposed on an inner circumferential side of the outer ring and having an annular shape; and rollers. The inner ring has an outer circumferential surface facing the outer ring and having two rows of grooves having a bottom surface serving as a raceway surface. The rollers are tapered rollers disposed in the grooves in contact with the raceway surface of the inner ring and are also in contact with the outer ring. At outer circumferential surface of the inner ring, a region adjacent to the groove includes a hardened region extending from the inner peripheral surface of the groove to the region adjacent to the groove, and an unhardened region located at a position farther from the groove than the hardened region and being smaller in hardness than the hardened region.
