"the differential in expansion is great enough to free the race and allow it to slip off"
Have you actually had this work (and how was the race selectively heated?) with a interference, press fit (not just a "tight" slip fit) of steel on steel? I've never seen it successfully done, as the heat transfer from part to part very quickly "catches up" and nulls out the very small thermal expansion difference.
