Is it possible the bearings are case hardened? With a process known as Kolsterizing (carbon diffusion process), surface hardness's of up to 72 RC on austenitic stainless can be achieved.

From what I read, the process creates a shallow case (22 -33 microns). so grinding the flat could very well work.I about said that earlier. My thought was grind a flat spot and then see if it can be drilled.
