Title:
NON-HEAT-TREATED STEEL FOR SOFT NITRIDING, AND SOFT-NITRIDED COMPONENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/070349
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides: a soft-nitrided component which, even when having been produced through water cooling after soft nitriding, has a flex fatigue strength of 600 MPa or higher and excellent straightenability; and a non-heat-treated steel for soft nitriding, which is suitable for use as a raw material for the soft-nitrided component. The non-heat-treated steel for soft nitriding has a chemical composition that contains 0.25-0.35%, excluding 0.35%, C, 0.15-0.35% Si, 0.85-1.20% Mn, up to 0.10% S, 0.010-0.030%, excluding 0.010%, Al, 0.003-0.020% Ti, and 0.010-0.020% N, with the remainder comprising Fe and impurities, in which P ≤0.08% and Cr≤0.10%, and that satisfies 0.02C+0.22Mn+0.87Cr+0.85Al+0.72≥0.96 and 2.40C-0.54Mn-9.26Cr-0.01Al+1.59≥0.90.
