Abstract

An austenitic stainless steel material comprises, on a mass basis, 0.200% or less of C, 4.00% or less of Si, 5.00% or less of Mn, 4.00 to 10.00% of Ni, 12.00 to 18.00% of Cr, 3.50% or less of Cu, 1.00 to 5.00% of Mo, and 0.200% or less of N, a total amount of C and N of 0.100% or more, and the balance being Fe and impurities; wherein the austenitic stainless steel material has a value of Mdof −40.0 to 0° C., wherein the value of Mdis represented by the following equation (1):Md=551−462(C+N)−9.2Si−8.1Mn−29(Ni+Cu)−13.7Cr−18.5Mo  (1)in which the symbols of the elements each represents a content (% by mass) of each element.
