ROLLED FERRITIC STAINLESS STEEL SHEET, METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND FLANGE PART

摘要

The present invention provides a rolled ferritic stainless steel material excellent in corrosion resistance and toughness, in particular suitable as a material for a flange and a method for producing the same and flange part. The rolled ferritic stainless steel material contains, by mass %, C: 0.001 to 0.08%, Si: 0.01 to 1.0%, Mn: 0.01 to 1.0%, P: 0.01 to 0.05%, S: 0.0002 to 0.01%, Cr: 10.0 to 25.0%, and N: 0.001 to 0.05%, has a balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, has a thickness of 5 mm or more, and has an area ratio of crystal grains with a 011 direction within 15° from the rolling direction of 20% or more in a cross-section parallel to the rolling direction at any location between the left and right ends of the steel sheet.
