The basic characteristics of the chemical composition of steel with improved machinability (X8CrNiS18-9) are the increased content of sulphur (0.15-0.45%), phosphorus (0.07-0.11%) and manganese (0.5-1.5%). Sulphur by creating sulphide inclusions reduces friction and cutting resistance, and increases the brittleness of the chip.Considering its harmf...
