Steels for rolling bearings are important in the world production of special steels. They are used for the production of rolling bodies and rings. Since these are very responsible parts in machine construction, high-quality standards are required for these steels. The service life of rolling bearings, in addition to working conditions also depends on the properties of the steel used for their production and the production technology. Heat treatment is one of the phases in the production of the bearing and has a significant influence on the final properties of the bearing. This paper presents the results of testing the influence of isothermal quenching at two different temperatures and for different holding times on a microstructure and hardness of steel 100Cr6. Isothermal quenching is often used in practice to avoid tempering after quenching.
