As I assume that your main raeson for posting this question was for suggestions on the phrasing of the translation rather than for meanings of the words themselves, I'll give you my translation of the whole sentence so you can see where I was going with this.
.

Silicon steel ingot containing, by mass percentage, 0.045 % C, 3.20% Si, 0.025% Al, and the remaining percent represented by Fe and inevitable impurities, is rolled.

I am not an expert, so you should double-check my usage of the term "silicon steel ingot" and the use of the word "rolled" at the end, but I wanted to show you how I'd put the parts of the sentence together. Then, you can substitute some of my term choices if you wish (e.g. parts such as "silicon steel ingot" that were not actually part of your Kudoz question you posted, but were included by me in an attempt to give clarity to my translation).

The following is an exerpt and link to a patent document that you might find useful. The subject matter is very similar to what you asked about.
Ingot steel for use in producing a single-oriented silicon steel sheet having a high magnetic induction, the steel being a silicon steel containing less than 0.085% C, 1-3.5% Si, up to 0.060% S, 0.02 to 0.945% acid-soluble Al and at least one element selected from the group consisting of 0.007 to 0.30% Se, 0.077 to 0.20% Te and the rest being Fe. The ingot steel is hot-rolled to form a steel sheet, the hot-rolled steel sheet is subjected to an annealing

SILICON STEEL INGOT CONTAINING, BY MASS PERCENTAGE, 0.045 % C, 3.20% Si, 0.025% Al, AND THE REMAINING PERCENT REPRESENTED BY Fe AND INEVITABLE IMPURITIES, IS ROLLED. (<--or, maybe, "hot-rolled"?)

As suggested by Tak below, "the remaining percent represented by" may be too lengthy.

You might want to consider using "AND THE BALANCE BEING Fe" or "AND THE REST BEING Fe".

  -> Thank you for your link regarding mass percentage.

agree  Takashi Fukunaga: "REMAINING PERCENT REPRESENTED BY" could be simply "balance".

  -> Thank you so much, Tak. Yes, "the balance being Fe" or "the rest being Fe" would be more concise, and as a more literal translation of the Japanese, would be, perhaps, better. Thank you for your suggestion. I appreciate it.
