A solenoid valve has a tapered valve seat disposed between a first flow passage and a second flow passage, a reduced diameter side of the valve seat that is connected with the first flow passage, and a valve body having a closing portion that reduces its diameter toward a tip facing the valve seat. The first flow passage and the second flow passage are connected/disconnected by sliding the valve body for contacting/detaching the closing portion to the valve seat, and a groove is disposed on the closing portion facing the direction of a fluid flow.

An engagement portion with a shape recessed in a radial direction of a sleeve is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the sleeve so as to circuit the outer periphery of the sleeve. The engagement portion is also disposed inside an assembly hole of a housing. Caulking of an area surrounding an opening of the assembly hole joins the engagement portion and a deformed portion of the housing. Parts such as sealing members and bushings become unnecessary, because the assembly hole and the sleeve are sealed by contacting surfaces of the deformed portion and the engagement portion. Furthermore, fixing of the sleeve and the housing, as well as the formation of a sealed portion between the assembly hole and the sleeve assures the realization of a one-time caulking process.

A method of stress inducing transformation from the austenite phase to the martensite phase by conducting cold working on material of austenite stainless steel in the temperature range from the point Ms to the point Md. The above cold working is a biaxial tensing. An intermediately formed hollow body is made, which includes a ferromagnetic portion and a non-magnetic portion contracting inward. Then, the intermediately formed body is subjected to a stress removing process in which residual tensile stress is removed from an intermediately formed body. In the stress removing process, it is preferable that a punch is press-fitted into the intermediately formed body so as to expand a non-magnetic portion and then the intermediately formed body is drawn with ironing while the punch is inserted so that the residual tensile stress can be changed into the residual compressive stress in the non-magnetic portion.

A metallic member including not more than 0.6% C, 12 to 19% Cr, 6 to 12% Ni, not more than 2% Mn, not more than 2% Mo, not more than 1% Nb and the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, where Hirayama's equivalent H eq=�Ni %!+1.05 �Mn %!+0.65 �Cr %!+0.35 �Si %!+12.6 �C %! is 20 to 23%; Nickel equivalent Ni eq=�Ni %!+30 �C %!+0.5 �Mn %! is 9 to 12%, and Chromium equivalent Cr eq=�Cr %!+�Mo %!+1.5 �Si %!+0.5 �Nb %! is 16 to 19, wherein % is by weight, is made to have at least one ferromagnetized part having a magnetic flux density B.sub.4000 of not less than 0.3 T and at least one non-magnetized part having a relative magnetic permeability .mu. of not more than 1.2 at a temperature of not less than -40.degree. C., as continuously and integrally formed. The non-magnetized part has crystal grain sizes of not more than 30 .mu.m. The metallic member is subjected to ferromagnetization and successive local non-magnetization of part or parts of the ferromagnetized member, and the thus obtained composite magnetic member is employed as a support member such as a sleeve in electromagnetic valves.
