Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、耐食性、靱性および冷間加工性に優れた高硬度マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼およびそれを用いたセルフドリリングタッピンネジ等の製品に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から、各種産業機械、自動車、電子機器、化学装置等において高強度と耐食性が要求される部品の素材として利用されるマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼、例えば、各種シャフト類、耐食軸受等の素材にはSUS410、SUS420J2、SUS440C等のマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼が使用されている。しかしながら、これらのマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼は、一般的なオーステナイト系ステンレス鋼、例えばSUS304と比べて、Cr量が低くC量が高いため、高強度は得られるものの、大気環境中においても容易に発銹する程度の耐食性しかない。一方、高強度と耐食性を両立させたマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼として、特許第2968844号公報で示される耐孔食性の優れた高硬度マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼や特開平6−264194号公報に示される耐銹性に優れた高強度マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼およびドリリングタッピンネジ等が提案されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上述したタッピンネジに求められる特性は、硬度、耐食性、靱性および冷間加工性(冷鍛−転造)である。そこで従来、硬度は高いが耐食性に劣るマルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼には耐食性付与のため、Sn等のめっきが、硬度の低いオーステナイト系には窒化等の表面硬化法が用いられている。しかしながら、これらの方法は、工数増によるコストアップが不可避である。一方、前述した特許第2968844号公報や特開平6−264194号公報に示される耐銹性に優れた高強度マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼およびドリリングタッピンネジとして開示されているが、いずれも、焼なまし硬さを上げる作用のあるNiの積極的添加を必須としたものであり、冷鍛時のプレス負荷が増加して生産性を悪化させるなど、冷間加工性が不十分という問題がある。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、上述したような問題を解決したもので、耐食性向上に有効なCrとMoを必要量添加し、硬度と耐食性を上げるNを添加し、Cは必要最小限に抑えるまた、マルテンサイト中にフェライトが残留すると耐食性と靱性を著しく低下させるため、成分バランスの調整によりフェライトフリーとすると共に、靱性低下原因のC量に制限を加えた耐食性、靱性および冷間加工性に優れた高硬度マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼およびその製品を提供することにある。

【0013】
Cu:0.2%以下
Cuは、靱性、熱間加工性、リサイクル性の観点から特に上限を制限した。0.2%を超えると靱性および熱間加工性が悪化する。従って、その上限を0.2%とした。望ましくは0.1%未満とする。
Al:0.05%以下
Alは、強力な脱酸元素として有効である。しかし、0.05%を超えると二次酸化の問題がある。従って、その上限を0.05%とした。
【0014】

Caは、熱間加工性を改善する元素である。しかし、0.005%を超えると粗大酸化物が生じて冷間加工性を悪化させる。従って、その上限を0.005%とした。
Mg:0.005%以下
Mgは、Caと同様に、熱間加工性を改善する元素である。しかし、0.005%を超えると粗大酸化物が生じて冷間加工性を悪化させる。従って、その上限を0.005%とした。
【0015】
Ti:0.5%以下
Tiは、炭窒化物を生成し耐食性を改善する元素である。しかし、0.5%を超えると熱間加工性、冷間鍛造性を悪化させる。従って、その上限を0.5%とした。

V,W,Nb,Ta,Hfは、Tiと同様、炭窒化物を生成し耐食性を改善する元素である。しかし、0.5%を超えると熱間加工性、冷間鍛造性を悪化させる。従って、それぞれの上限を0.5%とした。
【0016】
B:0.01%以下

【0018】
Pf(フェライトパラメータ):14以下
Pfは、残留フェライト量と相関のあるパラメータで、この値の増加に伴ってフェライト量が増加する。この値が14を超えると、フェライトフリー化が十分得られない。従って、その上限を14とした。
Ph(硬さパラメータ):50以下
Phは、最適焼入温度で焼入れし、200℃で焼戻ししたときの硬さと相関のあるパラメータである。この値が50未満では、50HRC以上の高硬度が十分に得られない。従って、その上限を50とした。
【0019】
焼入れ、焼き戻し材の残留フェライトが面積率で5%以下、炭化物の面積率が2%以下とした理由は、以下の通りである。残留フェライトが面積率で5%を超えると、フェライト周囲に析出した炭化物との境界で発銹が生じやすく、また靭性にも劣る。また、炭化物の面積率が2%を超えると、冷間加工時に割れを生じやすくなる一方、粒界に析出した炭化物は靭性を悪化させる。従って、その上限をそれぞれ5%、2%とした。
また、焼なまし硬さを95HRB以下で、引抜き、冷鍛、転造等の冷間加工により成形後、熱処理により50HRC以上の硬さとすることにより、セルフドリリングタッピンネジ等の製品に好適な材料となる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a high-hardness martensitic stainless steel excellent in corrosion resistance, toughness, and cold workability, and a product such as a self-drilling tapping screw using the same.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, martensitic stainless steels used as materials for parts that require high strength and corrosion resistance in various industrial machines, automobiles, electronic equipment, chemical equipment, etc., for example, various shafts, corrosion resistant bearings, etc. Martensitic stainless steel such as SUS410, SUS420J2, and SUS440C is used. However, these martensitic stainless steels have a low Cr content and a high C content compared to general austenitic stainless steels such as SUS304, so that although high strength is obtained, they are easily generated even in the atmospheric environment. It has only a certain degree of corrosion resistance. On the other hand, as a martensitic stainless steel having both high strength and corrosion resistance, the high hardness martensitic stainless steel with excellent pitting corrosion resistance disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2968844 and the resistance to resistance shown in JP-A-6-264194 are disclosed. High-strength martensitic stainless steel with excellent inertia and drilling tapping screws have been proposed.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The characteristics required for the tapping screw described above are hardness, corrosion resistance, toughness, and cold workability (cold forging-rolling). Therefore, conventionally, plating of Sn or the like is used for martensitic stainless steel having high hardness but poor corrosion resistance, and surface hardening methods such as nitriding are used for austenite having low hardness. However, these methods inevitably increase costs due to an increase in man-hours. On the other hand, it is disclosed as high strength martensitic stainless steel and drilling tapping screw having excellent weather resistance shown in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent No. 2968844 and JP-A-6-264194, both of which are annealed hard There is a problem that cold workability is inadequate, such as positive addition of Ni, which has an effect of increasing the thickness, which is essential, and the press load at the time of cold forging increases to deteriorate productivity.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, adds necessary amounts of Cr and Mo effective for improving corrosion resistance, adds N which increases hardness and corrosion resistance, and keeps C to the minimum necessary . In addition, if ferrite remains in martensite, the corrosion resistance and toughness are remarkably reduced. Therefore, it is made ferrite-free by adjusting the balance of ingredients, and the corrosion resistance, toughness and cold workability are limited by limiting the amount of C that causes toughness reduction. The object is to provide an excellent high-hardness martensitic stainless steel and its products.

[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the reason for limiting the component range of the high hardness martensitic stainless steel excellent in corrosion resistance, toughness and cold workability of the present invention will be specifically described.
C: 0.17 to 0.22%
C, together with N, needs to be 0.17% or more for securing the strength. However, if it exceeds 0.22%, within the range of the Cr content of the present invention, a large amount of Cr carbide that does not dissolve in optimum quenching conditions is produced, and the toughness is deteriorated. Therefore, the C content is set to 0.17 to 0.22%.
[0009]
Si: 2.0% or less Si is an effective element as a deoxidizing element. However, if it exceeds 2.0%, the annealing hardness increases and the amount of residual ferrite during quenching increases. Therefore, the upper limit was made 2.0%.
Mn: 2.0% or less Mn is a deoxidizing element and has the effect of increasing the solubility of N. However, the addition exceeding 2.0% is not so effective and deteriorates the corrosion resistance. Therefore, the upper limit was made 2.0%.
[0010]
Cr: 14.0 to 15.0%
Cr is a basic element that provides corrosion resistance. However, if it is less than 14.0%, the corrosion resistance is insufficient, and if it exceeds 15.0%, ferrite increases and Cr carbide increases, leading to deterioration of toughness and the like. 0%.
Mo: 0.7 to 1.3%
Mo improves the corrosion resistance of the atmospheric environment by coexisting with Cr. However, if it is less than 0.7%, it is insufficient, and if it exceeds 1.3%, segregation is strengthened and ferrite tends to be formed, so the range was made 0.7 to 1.3%.
[0011]
N: 0.10 to 0.15%
N increases the hardness together with C and has a positive effect on the corrosion resistance. However, if it is less than 0.10%, sufficient hardness cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 0.15%, it causes solidification defects in the scope of the present invention due to the limitation of the amount of N solid solution. Therefore, the range was made 0.10 to 0.15%.
P: 0.05% or less P particularly limited the upper limit from the viewpoint of toughness. If it exceeds 0.05%, high toughness cannot be obtained. Desirably, it is less than 0.03%.
[0012]
O: 0.003 to 0.01%
O particularly limited the upper limit from the viewpoint of preventing cold forging cracks. When it exceeds 0.01%, the generated oxide inhibits workability. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.01%. Desirably, the content is less than 0.006%. Further, the lower limit is made 0.003%.
Ni: 0.17 to 0.6%
Ni particularly limited the upper limit from the viewpoint of cold workability. If it exceeds 0.6%, it becomes difficult to soften by annealing. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.6%. Desirably, the content is less than 0.4%. Further, the lower limit is made 0.17%.
[0013]
Cu: 0.2% or less Cu particularly limited the upper limit from the viewpoints of toughness, hot workability, and recyclability. If it exceeds 0.2%, toughness and hot workability deteriorate. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.2%. Desirably, the content is less than 0.1%.
Al: 0.05% or less Al is effective as a powerful deoxidizing element. However, if it exceeds 0.05%, there is a problem of secondary oxidation. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.05%.
[0014]
Ca: 0.005% or less Ca is an element that improves hot workability. However, if it exceeds 0.005%, a coarse oxide is generated, and cold workability is deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.005%.
Mg: 0.005% or less Mg, like Ca, is an element that improves hot workability. However, if it exceeds 0.005%, a coarse oxide is generated, and cold workability is deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.005%.
[0015]
Ti: 0.5% or less Ti is an element that generates carbonitrides and improves corrosion resistance. However, when it exceeds 0.5%, hot workability and cold forgeability are deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.5%.
V: 0.5% or less, W: 0.5% or less, Nb: 0.5% or less, Ta: 0.5% or less, Hf: 0.5% or less V, W, Nb, Ta, Hf are Like Ti, it is an element that produces carbonitrides and improves corrosion resistance. However, when it exceeds 0.5%, hot workability and cold forgeability are deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit of each is 0.5%.
[0016]
B: 0.01% or less B is an element that improves hot workability. However, if it exceeds 0.01%, the hot workability is adversely affected. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.01%.
S: 0.4% or less S is an element that improves machinability. However, when it exceeds 0.4%, hot workability and cold forgeability are deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit was made 0.4%.
[0017]
Se: 0.3% or less, Te: 0.1% or less, Pb: 0.3% or less, Bi: 0.3% or less Se, Te, Pb, and Bi improve machinability in the same manner as S. It is an element. However, when it exceeds 0.3% to 0.1%, hot workability and cold forgeability are deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit of each is set to 0.3% or 0.1%.
[0018]
Pf (ferrite parameter): 14 or less Pf is a parameter correlated with the amount of residual ferrite, and the amount of ferrite increases as this value increases. If this value exceeds 14, a ferrite-free structure cannot be obtained sufficiently. Therefore, the upper limit is set to 14.
Ph (Hardness parameter): 50 or less Ph is a parameter correlated with hardness when quenched at an optimum quenching temperature and tempered at 200 ° C. If this value is less than 50, a high hardness of 50 HRC or higher cannot be obtained sufficiently. Therefore, the upper limit is set to 50.
[0019]
The reason why the residual ferrite of the quenched and tempered material is 5% or less in area ratio and the area ratio of carbide is 2% or less is as follows. If the residual ferrite exceeds 5% in terms of area ratio, it tends to cause erosion at the boundary with the carbide precipitated around the ferrite and is inferior in toughness. On the other hand, when the area ratio of carbide exceeds 2%, cracking is likely to occur during cold working, while carbide precipitated at the grain boundary deteriorates toughness. Therefore, the upper limit was made 5% and 2%, respectively.
In addition, the material having a suitable hardness for a product such as a self-drilling tapping screw can be obtained by forming it by cold working such as drawing, cold forging, rolling, etc. with an annealing hardness of 95 HRB or less and then heat-treating it to a hardness of 50 HRC or more. Become.
