201  is part of the 200 series of austenitic stainless steels. Originally developed to conserve nickel, this family of stainless steels is characterized by low-nickel content. 201 stainless steel  can substitute for 301 stainless steel in many applications, but is less corrosion resistant than its counterpart, particularly in chemical environments.Annealed, it is non-magnetic, but can become magnetic by cold working. A greater nitrogen content in type 201 provides higher yield strength and toughness than type 301 steel, especially at low temperatures.
