(57) A heat insulating alloy steel contains 0.1 to 5.0 wt.% of C, 3.0 to 7.0 wt.% of Si,
5.0 to 18 wt.% of Ni, 0.5 to 8.0 wt.% of Cr, optionally at least one of less than
2.0 wt.% or less of Mn, 2.0 wt.% or less of Al and 2.0 wt.% of Mo, and the balance
essentially of Fe. This heat insulating steel has a matrix metal structure with 30
% or more area ratio of a martensite phase. Further, a die casting machine part such
as an injection sleeve or a pouring port bushing, having a surface making contact
with an Al based molten metal, is made of a Fe base alloy containing 0.1 to 1.5 wt.%
of C, 5.0 to 40 wt.% of Ni and 0.5 to 10 wt.% of at least one carbide forming element
from: Cr, Mo, W, V, Nb, Ta, Ti and Zr. Such machine part comprises a surface layer
portion including the surface making contact with the Al basedmolten metal, formed
therein with a high density carbide layer as a dissolution resistance barrier.
