The invention relates to a heat treatment method, in particular to a high-carbon chrome bearing part surface intensified heat treatment method. The heat treatment method adopts the following steps: firstly, 
carbonitriding treatment: at the temperature of 830 to 850 DEG C, through adding 0.95 to 1.2C percent of 
carbon potential and 0.2 to 0.4m<3> / h of 
ammonia gas, a GCr15 bearing part is carbonitrided for 6 to 8 hours and then oil 
quenching is performed; secondly, high temperature 
tempering: at the temperature of 580 DEG C with the tolerance of 10 DEG C, high temperature 
tempering is implemented for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, and the bearing part is discharged from the furnace and air-cooled; thirdly, at the temperature of 820 DEG C with the tolerance of 10 DEG C, in the protective 
atmosphere of 0.95 to 1.2C percent of 
carbon potential and 0.2 to 0.4m<3> / h of 
ammonia gas, and the conventional secondary high temperature 
tempering is carried out. The invention has the advantages that a penetrating layer of 0.4 to 0.65mm can be achieved on the part surface through the method, in the obtained 
carbon nitrogen compound, the residual 
austenite amount is not less than 20 percent, the 
carbon nitrogen compound has 12 to 13 grade 
ultra fine grain size, the particle is difficult to differentiate under the 
optical microscope of 500 times, and the 
wear resistance and the anti-
rolling contact fatigue lifetime of the bearing under the polluted 
lubrication environment are enhanced.
