Obtain a bearing's component, a heat treatment method thereof, and a rolling bearing having a long life against rolling contact fatigue and high anti-crack strength, and suppressed long-term dimensional variation rate. The bearing's component is carbonitrided at a carbonitriding temperature higher than an A1 transformation point of steel for the bearing's component and then cooled to a temperature lower than the A1 transformation point, and subsequently, using a heat treatment apparatus that successively moves and heats each individual bearing's component, reheated to a range of quenching temperature of no less than the A1 transformation point and less than the carbonitriding temperature to be quenched.

A transmission component is incorporated into a transmission in which an input shaft, an output shaft, or a gear is rotatably supported by a rolling bearing. The component has a nitriding layer at a surface layer and an austenite grain with a grain size number falling within a range exceeding 10. This provides a transmission component having an increased anti-crack strength, enhanced dimensional stability, and a long fatigue life. A method of manufacturing such a transmission component and a tapered roller bearing are also provided.
