A corrosion resistant, martensitic stainless steel alloy is disclosed having the following composition in weight percent. - wt. % - Carbon 0.06-0.10 - Manganese 0.50 max. - Silicon 0.40 max. - Phosphorus 0.060 max. - Sulfur 0.15-0.55 - Chromium 12.00-12.60 - Nickel 0.25 max. - Molybdenum 0.10 max. - Copper 0.50 max. - Nitrogen 0.04 max. - and the balance is essentially iron. This alloy provides a unique combination of form tool machinability, corrosion resistance, and hardenability, particularly in the annealed condition (100 HRB max.). The alloy is capable of being hardened to at least 35 HRC.
