The present invention provides an austenitic stainless steel tube with a uniform fine grained structure of regular grains, which is not changed to a coarse structure and the steam oxidation resistance is maintained even if the tube is subjected to a high temperature reheating during welding and high temperature bending working. The austenitic stainless steel tube consists of, by mass %, C: 0.03-0.12%, Si: 0.1-0.9%, Mn: 0.1-2%, Cr: 15-22%, Ni: 8-15%, Ti: 0.002-0.05%, Nb: 0.3-1.5%, sol. Al: 0.0005-0.03%, N: 0.005-0.2% and O (oxygen): 0.001-0.008%, and the balance Fe and impurities, the austenitic stainless steel tube having austenitic grain size number of 7 or more and a mixed grain ratio of preferably 10% or less. <??>The present invention also provide a method of manufacturing the austenitic stainless steel tube comprising the following steps: (a) heating an austenitic steel tube at 1100-1350 DEG C and maintaining the temperature, and cooling at a cooling ratio of 0.25 DEG C/sec; (b) working by cross-sectional reduction ratio of 10% or more at a temperature range of 500 DEG C or less; and (c) heating at a temperature range of 1050-1300 DEG C and at a temperature of lower by 10 DEG C or more than the heating temperature in the step(a). |
