Abstract
A steel composition which has good nitridability, in particular for the manufacture of piston rings and cylinder liners, contains the following elements in the following quantities expressed with respect to 100 weight % of the steel composition: 0.5-1.5 weight % Al, 0.5-1.2 weight % C, 68.2-96.9 weight % Fe, 0.1-3.0 weight % Mn and 2.0-10.0 weight % Si. It can be manufactured by producing a melt of starting materials and casting the melt into a prepared mold. Nitriding the steel composition obtained results in a nitrided steel composition produced by gravity casting manufacturing with properties that surpass those of hardened and tempered spheroidal graphite.
