Title:
MARAGING STEEL STRIP
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2010110379
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a maraging steel strip which has such a composition that can reduce the content of TiN acting as the starting point of fatigue fracture in a high-cycle region, and the bending fatigue strength of which has been improved by the precipitation hardening effect yielded by precipitating coherent nitrides in the nitrided structure. A maraging steel strip produced by nitriding a maraging steel which contains by mass, C: 0.01% or less, Si: 0.1% or less, Mn: 0.1% or less, P: 0.01% or less, S: 0.005% or less, Ni: 8.0 to 22.0%, Cr: 0.1 to 8.0%, Mo: 2.0 to 10.0%, Co: 2.0 to 20.0%, Ti: 0.1% or less, Al: 2.5% or less, N: 0.03% or less, and O: 0.005% or less, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein Baker-Nutting orientation relationship with an orientation difference within 10° exists between the Cr nitride precipitated in the nitrided layer and the matrix martensite.
