摘要:
The present invention provides a spring steel with excellent performance, characterized in that the spring steel is produced by making a spring steel contain an appropriate amount of at least one or more of Ti, Nb, Zr, Ta, and Hf, thereby generating fine inclusions including carbide, nitride, sulfides and/or their complex compounds, to make the inclusions exert the effect of trapping diffusive hydrogen whereby the resistance to hydrogen embrittlement is enhanced, wherein the size and number of the coarse inclusions are regulated, thereby suppressing the decrease of the fatigue life. The spring steel can provide a valve spring or a suspension spring or the like, with enhanced strength and higher stress resistance, together with improved resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and fatigue.

Disclosed is a high-strength spring steel containing C, Si, Mn, Ni, Cr, Mo, V and the like within the specified range, wherein the above components satisfy the following equation:550-333[C]-34[Mn]-20[Cr]-17[Ni]-11[Mo].gtoreq. 300where [C, Mn, Cr, Ni, or Mo] represents wt % of each component, and the average diameter of the non-metallic inclusions of oxides is specified. By use of the above steel, there can be obtained a high-strength spring steel having a tensile strength of 200 kgf/mm.sup.2 or more and being excellent in the fatigue characteristic and the sag resistance. Further, in the above steel, each content of C, Si, Ni, and Cr may be added to satisfies the following equation:50[Si]+25[Ni]+40[Cr]-100[C].gtoreq. 230where [Si, Ni, Cr or C] represents wt % of each component. Thus the corrosion fatigue characteristic is also improved.
