Provided is austenitic heat-resisting cast steel that is excellent in both of the heat resistance and the machinability. Austenitic heat-resisting cast steel, includes: C: 0.1 to 0.4 mass %; Si: 0.8 to 2.5 mass %; Mn: 0.8 to 2.0 mass %; S: 0.05 to 0.30 mass %; Ni: 5 to 20 mass %; N: 0.3 mass % or less; Zr: 0.01 to 0.20 mass %; Ce: 0.01 to 0.10 mass %; one type or more of the elements selected from the following groups of (i) to (iii), at least including (i), (i) Cr: 14 to 24 mass %, (ii) Nb: 1.5 mass % or less, and (iii) Mo: 3.0 mass % or less; and Fe and inevitable impurity as a remainder.

Austenitic heat-resisting cast steel

Provided is austenite heat-resisting cast steel with reduced precipitation of ferrite phase during the application of thermal load to stabilize the austenite structure for improved heat resistance. The austenite heat-resisting cast steel contains elements of 0.1 to 0.6 mass % of C, 1.0 to 2.5 mass % of Si, 1.0 to 3.5 mass % of Mn, 0.05 to 0.2 mass % of S, 14 to 24 mass % of Cr, 5 to 20 mass % of Ni, 0.1 to 0.3 mass % of N, 0.01 to 1.2 mass % of Zr, 0.01 to 1.5 mass % of Cu, 0.01 to 1.5 mass % of Nb, Fe as a remainder and unavoidable impurity. The elements satisfy the following expressions:Mn&#x2014;S&#x2267;1.0; andC&#x2212;(1/12Cr&#x2212;32Zr)&#x3e;0,
