According to the low-strength high-
formability austenitic stainless steel and the manufacturing method thereof, C + N is controlled to be smaller than or equal to 0.035%, the
manganese content is controlled to be within 1.5%, the
tin content is limited to be 0.01%-0.30%, the
copper content is limited to be 2.4%-4.5%, and the
tin-
copper ratio is that (Sn / Cu) * 1000 is larger than or equal to 5 and smaller than or equal to 50, so that it is guaranteed that
tin exerts the beneficial effects such as the
corrosion resistance is improved, and the harm of tin segregation can be controlled to be at the low level; according to the finally obtained
austenitic stainless steel, the yield strength is smaller than or equal to 160 Mpa, the tensile strength is smaller than or equal to 500 Mpa, the
ductility is larger than or equal to 55%, the grain size grade is 6-8, edge cracks cannot occur during hot rolling, the
martensite content of a cup drawing deformation part is 0.05% or below during
large deformation machining, in other words, the
austenite phase is still stable under the complex deformation condition, deformation cracks are avoided, and the service life of the
austenitic stainless steel is prolonged. The comprehensive effects of high
corrosion resistance, low strength and high forming
machinability of the material are achieved.
