• An average particle size of nitrides, a solute N content in steel (a content of N forming a solid solution in steel), and a solute B content in steel (a content of B forming a solid solution in steel) are reducible by a combination of ferritic stainless steel of which components are adjusted with one or more of B, Ti, and Nb and a hot- rolling process (a temperature at a finish rolling entering side, a rolling diameter of finish rolling, and a heat treatment temperature).
• a “bar-shaped steel product” examples include a “steel bar”, a “wire rod”, a “steel wire”, a “deformed wire”, and a “deformed steel bar”.
• an average particle size of nitrides is controlled. Specifically, the average particle size of nitrides is 10 ⁇ m or less, because coarse nitrides having an average particle size exceeding 10 ⁇ m decrease high-speed cold forging properties.
• the average particle size of nitrides is more preferably 7 ⁇ m or less, still more preferably 5 ⁇ m or less. When the average particle size of nitrides is too small, soft magnetic properties and machinability decrease.
• the average particle size of nitrides is thus preferably 0.01 ⁇ m or more. Note that the nitrides include carbonitrides.
