Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022096178A1] The present invention relates to a paramagnetic stainless steel with a chemical composition comprising by weight: - 20 ≤ Cr ≤ 40%, - 3 ≤ Ni ≤ 20%, - 0 ≤ Mn ≤ 15%, - 0 ≤ Al ≤ 5%, - 3 < Mo ≤ 15%, - 0 ≤ W ≤ 5%, - 0 ≤ Cu ≤ 2%, - 0 ≤ Si ≤ 5%, - 0 ≤ Ti ≤ 1%, - 0 ≤ Nb ≤ 1%, - 0 ≤ C ≤ 0.1%, - 0 ≤ N ≤ 0.5%, - 0 ≤ S ≤ 0.5%, - 0 ≤ P ≤ 0.1%, the remainder being iron and possible impurities each having a content less than or equal to 0.5%, said steel having a hardness between 575 and 900 HV10. The invention also relates to a part, in particular a watch component made of this steel and to the method for manufacturing the part.
