Fuel tank made of ferritic stainless steel

摘要

The present invention provides: a fuel tank made of a ferritic stainless steel sheet having long lasting corrosion resistance under the environment of the fuel tank and excellent in formability when fabricating the fuel tank; more specifically, a fuel tank made of a ferritic stainless steel sheet containing 10 to 25 mass % of Cr and having an average r-value of 1.9 or larger, an r-value in-plane anisotropy DELTAr of 1.0 or smaller, and a total elongation of 30% or larger, having a plane intensity ratio I(111)/I(100) of 10 or larger, and having lubricant films on the surfaces of the steel sheet and a surface friction coefficient of 0.10 or less.
