201

201 Stainless Steel

201 is a low-nickel stainless steel with properties
approaching  301 but with a higher work hardening
coefficient.

201 is an austenitic stainless steel, which belongs to
the family of the austenitic low nickel CrMn stainless steels, in
which manganese replaces a part of the nickel that is normally
alloyed to CrNi standard grades. It is the basic product of the
CrMn stainless steel family. Due to its high nitrogen content,
Core 201/4372 has increased mechanical strength and shows a
high degree of work hardening on mechanical deformation.
