Toroidal type continuously variable transmission parts having increased life

A toroidal type continuously variable transmission comprising:

• an input disk mounted on an input shaft;
• an output disk mounted on an output shaft;
• and
• a pair of power roller bearings each including-an inner race, an outer race, and a plurality of rolling elements, said inner race being engaged with said input and output disks to transmit motive power of said input shaft to said output shaft, characterized in that at least one of said inner race, outer race, input disk and output disk are made of case hardening steel, has a surface layer subjected to a heat treatment in which carburizing or carbonitriding, hardening and tempering are performed sequentially, and then to shot peening treatment to impart compressive residual stress, and after the shot peening treatment, grinding finishing is performed to remove a grinding portion of a region having a depth of 0.1 to 0.2 mm from the surface of each of said at least one of said inner race, outer race, input disk and output disk so that the remaining surface layer has a compressive residual stress within a range of -20 to -75 Kgf/mm.sup.2.
