2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, Pb free-cutting steel has been widely used in fields where high free-cutting properties are required. For example, in recent years, high-performance free-cutting stainless steels containing free-cutting elements such as Pb, Te, and Se have been proposed and put into practical use while reducing Mn and lowering the ratio of MnS to improve corrosion resistance (for example, JP-A-10-237603). However, these highly toxic free-cutting elements, such as Pb, are being regulated due to recent environmental problems, and cannot be manufactured.

On the other hand, Bi, which has characteristics similar to Pb, is a rare element, but has low toxicity and high corrosion resistance. Therefore, the Bi-containing steel is regarded as a promising environment-friendly high-performance free-cutting steel (for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-456).
No. 61). However, Bi is insoluble in molten steel and has a high vapor pressure. It is particularly difficult to melt in molten stainless steel. Therefore, B required to achieve machinability
When i was added, there was a problem that the hot workability was deteriorated due to the poor solubility of Bi. Therefore, conventionally,
Environmentally friendly Bi free-cutting steel is rarely used in the world.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The reasons for limiting the present invention according to claims 1 and 2 will be described below. Bi that deteriorates manufacturability
It is effective to improve the machinability and the manufacturability by introducing a large amount of low-melting-point metal inclusions into the steel while minimizing the addition of Al. As a result of various studies, Cu, Sn, Ag, and Mg are B
It has been found that it has a strong interaction with i and when it is added to molten steel together with Bi, a part of it is alloyed with Bi to form a metal inclusion having a low melting point in the steel. At this time, Cu, Sn, Ag, and Mg alone without Bi do not form a low-melting metal inclusion in the steel, but form a low-melting metal inclusion only when Bi coexists. As a result, B
Good machinability can be realized even if the addition amount of i is reduced, and as a result, the hot workability of the Bi free-cutting steel can be improved.

Next, the reasons for limitation of the present invention according to claims 3 and 4 will be described. In the case of stainless steel containing Cr in particular, Bi is difficult to dissolve, and the above-mentioned problems are increased. Therefore, the effect of the present invention is particularly large in stainless steel containing Cr: 11.0 to 25.0% as an essential element.

The effect of the present invention was confirmed by using ferritic stainless steel of% Cr as a basic component. Cu and S in Bi inclusions
The lower the concentration of one or more elements of n, Ag, and Mg, that is, the higher the concentration of Bi, the worse the machinability.
The machinability is deteriorated in Comparative Examples Nos. 26 to 28 in which the Bi concentration in the Bi inclusions is 80% or more.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY According to the present invention, when Bi, which hardly dissolves in molten steel, is added to the molten steel together with Cu, Sn, etc., which have a strong affinity for both Fe and Bi, it is possible to improve the productivity. By suppressing the addition of the Bi amount, a large amount of low melting point Bi-based metal inclusions can be introduced into the steel, and the machinability of the Bi-containing steel can be significantly improved.
