Abstract

A steel pipe, consisting of, in terms of mass %: from 0.06% to 0.25% of C, 0.50% or less of Si, 1.00% to 1.80% of Mn, 0.030% or less of P, 0.020% or less of S, 0.08% or less of Al, 0.008% or less of N, 0.080% or less of Nb, and a remainder consisting of Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein a compressive residual stress at an outer surface measured by an X-ray method is 250 MPa or more, and a compressive residual stress at a position at a depth of 1 mm from the outer surface measured by the X-ray method is 70% or more of the compressive residual stress at the outer surface measured by the X-ray method.
