Abstract: The present invention relates to a martensitic-ferritic stainless steel with high corrosion resistance that comprises the following chemical composition: C: from 5 0.005 to 0.030%; Si: from 0.10 to 0.40%; Mn from 0.20 to 0.80%; P: 0.020% max; S: 0.005% max; Cr: from 13 to 15%; Ni: from 4.0 to 6.0%; Mo: from 2.0 to 4.5%; V: from 0.01 to 0.10%; Nb: from 0.01 to 0.50%; N: from 0.001 to 0.070%; Al: from 0.001 to 0.060%; Ti: from 0.001 to 0.050%; Cu: from 0.01 to 1.50%; O: 0.005% max (all in weight percent), wherein the balance is performed by Fe and unavoidable impurities 10 from the industrial possessing in acceptable levels. Additionally, the martensitic-ferritic stainless steel of the present invention has the localized corrosion parameter (LCP), between 3.2 and 6.2, as defined by equation below; LCP=0.500?% Cr+1.287·% Mo+1.308·% N?5.
