Abstract
A steel having such a good machinability that it can be directly cut without being annealed and a good induction hardenability. The steel consists essentially of C: 0.37-0.45%, Si: up to 0.35%, Mn: more than 1.0% - up to 1.5%, B: 0.0005-0.0035%, Ti: 0.01-0.05%, Al: 0.01-0.06% and the balance of Fe, the content of N being up to 0.022 and has a fine structure of ferrite crystal grain size number 6 or more as defined by JIS-G0552. In addition to the above basic composition, the alloy may further contain some optional alloying elements. The material is suitable for manufacturing machine structural parts such as drive shafts of automobiles.
