Abstract

In the brake apparatus having a rotary pump, outer and inner rotors of the rotary pump are made of bearing steel and inner and outer teeth portions of the rotors are respectively processed by nitriding hardening or carbo-nitriding hardening. Accordingly, outer circumferential region of the outer teeth portion and inner circumferential region of the inner teeth are constituted by nitrided layer containing 15 to 40 percents retained austenite so that teeth faces of the outer and inner teeth portions in mesh may have higher wear resistance.
