Abstract
A purpose of the present invention is to provide a martensitic stainless steel applicable in environments involving both wet carbon dioxide gas and wet hydrogen sulfide and excellent in weldability, manufacturability, and resistance to strain age hardening. Provided is a martensitic stainless steel having excellent corrosion resistance and resistance to strain age hardening comprising, in percent by mass, 0.02% or less of C, 0.02% or less of N, 0.1 to 0.5% of Si, 0.1 to 0.5% of Mn, 10 to 13% Cr, Ni exceeding 5.0% but 8% or less, 1.5 to 3% of Mo, 0.01 to 0.05% of V, 0.16 to 0.30% of Zr, 0.01 to 0.05% of Ta, and the balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein the martensitic stainless steel satisfies the condition that the sum of the carbon and the nitrogen exceeds 0.02% but 0.04% or less.
