A carbo-nitriding process for forming a martensitic stainless steel, which is case hardened and superior corrosion resistance over carburized process, is provided. A process for forming a martensitic stainless steel which is case hardened is provided. The process comprises the steps of providing a material consisting essentially of from 8.0 to 18 wt% chromium, cobalt up to 16 wt%, vanadium up to 5.0 wt%, molybdenum up to 8.0 wt%, nickel up to 8.0 wt%, manganese up to 4.0 wt%, silicon up to 2.0 wt%, tungsten up to 6.0 wt%, titanium up to 2.0 wt%, niobium up to 4.0 wt% and the balance iron, and carbo-nitriding to prescribed levels of C + N, to form a hard, corrosion resistance case in a fracture tough stainless steel. <IMAGE> |
