Abstract
A ferritic stainless steel sheet and a steel pipe as a material suitable for a heat-resistant component that is required to have especially excellent formability are provided. The ferritic stainless steel sheet contains 10 to 20 mass % of Cr and a predetermined amount of C, Si, Mn, P, S, Al and one or both of Ti and Nb, a {111}-orientation intensity being 5 or more and {411}-orientation intensity being less than 3 at a portion in the vicinity of a sheet-thickness central portion of the ferritic stainless steel sheet. Further, with similar composition and by setting {111}<110>-orientation intensity at 4.0 or more and {311}<136>-orientation intensity at less than 3.0, a relationship r≥−1.0t+3.0 (t(mm): sheet thickness, r: average r-value) is satisfied, thereby providing a ferritic stainless steel sheet and a steel pipe with excellent formability.
