A method of manufacturing a mechanical element includes: a first step of forming a mechanical element that has a sliding surface, which constitutes machinery, by precision machining; a second step of subjecting the sliding surface of the formed mechanical element to surface processing; and a third step of grinding down protrusions on the sliding surface of the mechanical element subjected to surface processing with a grinding agent composition in which ceramic particles are dispersed in oil and embedding the ceramic particles in cavities on the sliding surface of the mechanical element, the ceramic particles each having a hardness higher than a hardness of the mechanical element and being 0.01 .Math.m or more and 0.5 .Math.m or less in particle size.

A tapered roller bearing is provided has a grinding undercut with an undercut width A of 0.5 mm or less from a reference point to a large flange surface. The reference point is the intersection point of the imaginary line extending from the generatrix of the raceway surface of the inner ring toward the grinding undercut, and the imaginary line extending from the generatrix of the large flange surface toward the grinding undercut.

A tapered roller bearing is configured such that, when considering: (i) a reference point which is the intersection point between the imaginary line extending from the generatrix of the raceway surface of the inner ring toward a grinding undercut, and the imaginary line extending from the generatrix of a large flange surface toward the grinding undercut; (ii) the undercut width A of the grinding undercut from the reference point to the large flange surface; and (iii) the width RC of a chamfer of each tapered roller in the direction along the generatrix of the large flange surface, the width RC is 0.7 mm or less and the relationship between A and RC is A<RC.

A roller for a roller bearing has a first end surface and a second end surface and a rolling surface between the first and second end surfaces. The first end surface has an at least partially ground profile having a non-constant curvature such as a logarithmic profile. Also, an assembly including a grinding tool and a roller with an end surface having a ground non-constant curvature.

A grinding apparatus includes: a grinding stone in which an outer circumferential surface thereof is pressed against the workpiece while being rotated and driven; and a fluid injection apparatus that has a fluid injection nozzle including an injection port from which a fluid is injected to the outer circumferential surface of the grinding stone, and a grinding oil supply apparatus that supplies a grinding oil to a processing point and that includes a grinding oil supply nozzle separate from the fluid injection nozzle, the processing point being an abutting section of the grinding stone and the workpiece, wherein the injection port is arranged so as to face the outer circumferential surface of the grinding stone in a state capable of injecting the fluid to a position different from the processing point in a radial direction of the grinding stone among the outer circumferential surface of the grinding stone.

A radial bearing having a wear surface with improved wear characteristics comprises a steel support, to which is bonded a metal carbide composite wear surface made by first arranging, within a cavity defined between a steel mold and the steel support, tiles made of microwave sintered, cemented metal carbide, closely packing the voids between the tiles with metal carbide powder, and infiltrating the mold cavity with a metal brazing alloy by subjecting the filled mold to rapid heating. The brazing alloy fills voids between the metal carbide particles, the microwave sintered metal carbide tiles, and the metal support, thereby relatively rapidly consolidating the carbide into a wear layer bonded with the steel support without substantially damaging the properties of the microwave-sintered metal carbide tiles.
