Since the materials used for mechanical applications are not usually core-hardened, an induction hardening heat treatment is applied in order to improve the mechanical proprieties of the raceways and, in that way, to increase the static and dynamic capacity of the bearing. This treatment guarantees a material hardness equivalent to the value of the rolling elements, up to a certain depth of the contact surface.
