Abstract

Machinable ferrite stainless steels having an excellent corrosion resistance, consisting of not more than 0.030% of C, not more than 0.050% of N, not more than 0.012% of O, not more than 0.8% of Si, not more than 1.6% of Mn, 0.05-0.40% of S, 16-22% of Cr, and 1-3% of Mo, or at least one of 0.03-0.25% of Pb, 0.03-0.20% of Se and 0.01-0.15% of Te, the remainder being Fe, provided that the sum of C and N is not more than 0.060% and Mn/S is 2-5, characterized by that Cr content based on 100 parts by weight of sulfide inclusions formed in the said steels is 10-50 parts by weight. This is a divisional application of application Ser. No. 942,138, filed Sept. 13, 1978.
