Abstract
A soft magnetic stainless steel consists essentially of, by weight, up to 0.03% of C, 0.40 to 1.10% of Si, up to 0.50% of Mn, 9.0 to 19.0% of Cr, 0.31 to 0.60% of Al, 0.01 to 0.03% of S, 0.10 to 0.30% of Pb, 0.02 to 0.25% of Ti, 0.02 to 0.10% of Zr, and up to 0.03% of N, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities, with a proviso that the C+N content is not more than 0.04% and the Si+Al content is not more than 1.35%. The steel has a magnetic flux density of 13,000 G or more and a coercive force of 1.2 Oe or less as magnetic properties, and a tensile strength of 41 kgf/mm.sup.2 or less and a critical compressibility of 50% or more as formability in cold forging. The steel is suitable for manufacturing, by cold forging, parts with complex shapes such as cores of solenoid operated valves and electromagnetic clutches, and bodies of electronic fuel injection apparatuses for internal combustion engines.
