An austenitic stainless steel includes (a) 0.03 wt % to 0.12 wt % of C, (b) 0.2 wt % to 1.0 wt % of Si, (c) 7.5 wt % to 10.5 wt % of Mn, (d) 14.0 wt % to 16.0 wt % of Cr, (e) 4.05 wt % to 4.31 wt % of Ni, (f) 0.04 wt % to 0.07 wt % of N, (g) 1.0 wt % to 3.5 wt % of Cu, (h) trace amount of Mo, and the balance being Fe and incidental impurities. The austenitic stainless steel has a delta-ferrite content less than 8.5 and equal to 6.77[(d)+(h)+1.5(b)]-4.85[(e)+30(a)+30(f)+0.5(c)+0.3(g)]-52.75.
