To investigate the effects of laser peening (LP) on the surface and bending fatigue properties of carburized steel (JIS SCM420), surface roughness measurements, residual stress measurements, retained austenite measurements, and four-point bending fatigue tests were conducted. After LP, the compressive residual stress was introduced on the surface, with the effect extending to a depth of more than 1 mm. Due to the high compressive stress, the bending fatigue strength of LP specimen was 1.46 times higher than that of the as-heat-treated specimen even though the surface roughness was increased by LP. Notably, the amount of retained austenite was 10.9％ at the top surface of LP specimen, and high-density twins were observed in the lath martensite structure. This can be attributed to high strain rate deformation by LP.
