The present disclosure relates to a tube made of an austenitic stainless steel comprising, in weight %, C≤0.080, 8.00≤Mn≤10.00, Si≤1.00, P≤0.030, S≤0.030, 19.00≤Cr≤21.50, 5.50≤Ni≤7.50, 0.15≤N≤0.40, Mo≤0.75, Cu≤0.75, which is balanced by Fe and normally occurring impurities. So far tubes made of an austenitic stainless steel comprising this composition of ingredients are welded. A major problem of welded tubes is the risk for cracking, where the weld zone is the preferential location for cracking. This is especially a problem for applications under extreme conditions like in the aircraft or aerospace industry. It is therefore an aspect of the present disclosure to provide a tube made of an austenitic stainless steel comprising the foresaid components which at least overcomes one of the foresaid problems. Furthermore, it is an aspect of the disclosure to provide tubes that have less weight as tube known from the state of the art but increases the security and lead to a higher standard in the aircraft and aerospace industry. At least one of the above aspects is solved by a foresaid tube, wherein that the tube is a seamless tube.
