Steel material
Abstract:
There is provided a steel material that has a high critical working ratio in cold forging and has a high fatigue strength and an excellent hydrogen embrittlement resistance when the steel material is formed into a carburized-steel component. The steel material according to the present embodiment has a chemical composition that contains, in mass %, C: 0.07 to 0.13%, Si: 0.15 to 0.35%, Mn: 0.60 to 0.80%, S: 0.005 to 0.050%, Cr: 1.90 to 2.50%, B: 0.0005 to 0.0100%, Ti: 0.010 to less than 0.050%, Al: 0.010 to 0.100%, Ca: 0.0002% to 0.0030%, N: 0.0080% or less, P: 0.050% or less, and O: 0.0030% or less, with the balance being Fe and impurities, and satisfies Formula (1) to Formula (5) described in the specification.
