New material for slewing rings

This new material allows full tempering and quenching of the steel and is said to provide outstanding strength properties, even with large ring cross sections. Zinc thermal spray surfaces, multi-layer painting and finished seal surfaces also provide the high levels of reliability, bearing rating life and security against premature damage, such as fatigue of the raceways and surface corrosion. Due to the material properties and the applied surface protection, the bearings are suitable for use in ambient temperatures down to -40°C.
