Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0710731A2] The use of a ferrous alloy for the mfr. of machine parts subject to high wear by sliding surface rubbing. The ferrous alloy contains in wt.%: 0.35-1 pref. 0.4-0.8 C; max. 1 Si; max. 1.6, pref. 0.3-1.4 N; max. 1 pref. max. 0.8 Al; max. 2.0 Co; 14-25, pref. 16-19 Cr; 0.5-03, pref. 0.8-1.5 Mo; max. 3, pref. max. 1.5 Ni; 0.04-0.4, pref. 0.05-02 V; max. 3 W; max. 0.18 Nb max. 0.2 Ti. The sum of C and N is 0.5-1.2 (pref. 0.61-0.95) and the balance is Fe plus usual impurities. Also claimed are: (i) a plunger piston esp. for displacement of corrosive media consisting of the above ferrous alloy coated with a layer of PVD or CVD deposited carbide and/or oxide and/or nitride of Al and/or Ti; and (ii) a piston ring esp. for internal combustion engines consisting of the above ferrous alloy and opt. at least partly, esp. on the surface subject to rubbing, a nitride layer of thickness of at least 0.05 mm, esp. thicker than 0.2 mm.
