Abstract

A piercing plug of the present invention includes: a plug body; a Ni—Cr layer formed on a surface of the plug body; and a sprayed coating formed on a surface of the Ni—Cr layer. The plug body contains, by mass %, 20 to 30% of Cr, 30 to 55% of Ni, 0.005 to 0.5% of C, 0.1 to 1.0% of Si, 0.2 to 1.5% of Mn, and at least one of Mo and W which satisfy a following conditional expression (A), and remainder including Fe and impurities. 1.5%≤Mo+0.5W≤8.5%  (A)

Claims (21)

1. A piercing plug comprising:

a plug body;

a Ni—Cr layer formed on a surface of the plug body, the Ni—Cr layer coming into contact with the plug body; and

a sprayed coating formed on a surface of the Ni—Cr layer,

wherein the plug body contains, by mass %, 20 to 30% of Cr, 30 to 50% of Ni, 0.005 to 0.5% of C, 0.1 to 1.0% of Si, 0.2 to 1.5% of Mn, and at least one of Mo and W which satisfy conditional expression (A): 1.5%≤Mo+0.5W≤8.5%, with a remainder including Fe and impurities.

2. The piercing plug according to claim 1 ,

wherein a heat treatment is performed at 850 to 1150° C. after the Ni—Cr layer and the sprayed coating are formed on the plug body.

3. The piercing plug according to claim 1 or 2 ,

wherein the sprayed coating contains iron and iron oxide.

4. The piercing plug according to claim 1 or claim 2 ,

wherein the sprayed coating is formed by arc-spraying a steel wire rod.

5. The piercing plug according to claim 1 or claim 2 ,

wherein a thickness of the Ni—Cr layer is 50 to 100 μm.

6. The piercing plug according to claim 3 ,

wherein the sprayed coating is formed by arc-spraying a steel wire rod.

7. The piercing plug according to claim 3 ,

wherein a thickness of the Ni—Cr layer is 50 to 100 μm.

8. The piercing plug according to claim 4 ,

wherein a thickness of the Ni—Cr layer is 50 to 100 μm.

9. The piercing plug according to claim 6 ,

wherein a thickness of the Ni—Cr layer is 50 to 100 μm.
