Abstract

Abstract A steel resistant to intergranular stress corrosion cracking having the composition: C up to 0.20%, Si 0.05 - 0.80%, Mn 0.30 - 1.50%, P up to 0.03%, S up to 0.03%, Al (sol. Al) 0.05 - 0.25%, Zr 0.03 - 0.20%, the balance being iron and unavoidable impurities. Another intergranular stress corrosion cracking resisting steel is disclosed which contains one or both of 0.10 - 0.30% Cr and 0.10 - 0.50% Ni in addition to the composition of the first-mentioned steel.
