Abstract
A substantially fully ferritic stainless steel having improved hot rolling and cold drawing properties, consisting essentially of from 0.010% to 0.17% carbon, 0.05% to 1.0% manganese, 0.05% to 1.0% silicon, 20.0% to 30.0% chromium, 0.05% to 0.35% nitrogen, 0.15% to 1.0% columbium, up to 0.50% vanadium, up to 0.75% molybdenum, 0.040% maximum phosphorus, 0.030% maximum sulfur, and remainder essentially iron. Columbium carbo-nitrides are distributed as dispersoids in a ferritic matrix and provide a strenghtening effect which prevents scratches, seams and longitudinal folds in hot rolled material and galling and scratches in cold drawn material. Preferably columbium plus vanadium is not more than 4 times carbon plus nitrogen.
