  • Patent number: 5716466
    Abstract: Disclosed is a stainless steel wire made of a two-phase stainless steel having austenite and ferrite, which is used as a PC tension member and wire rope both for dynamic and static use. The stainless steel wire contains 0.01-0.10 wt % of C, 0.1-1.0 wt % of Si, 0.30-1.50% of Mn, 0.010-0.040 wt % of P, 0.001-0.030 wt % of S, 18.0-30.0 wt % of Cr, 3.0-8.0 wt % of Ni, 0.1-3.0 wt % of Mo, and 0.10-0.45 wt % of N, the balance being essentially Fe and inevitable impurities, wherein the volume ratio of the ferrite to the sum of the austenite and the ferrite is specified to be in the range from 20.0 to 80.0%. Upon drawing, the drawing draft is in the range from 40 to 97%, the mean slenderness ratio (M.sub.R value) is in the range from 4 to 20, and the aging temperature is in the range from 150.degree. to 750.degree. C.
