Embodiment 1

[0089] The present invention will be described more specifically below by way of examples.

[0090]Each steel type having the composition shown in Table 1 was smelted and cast to form a slab, and the obtained slab was heated to 1200° C., hot-rolled at a hot finishing temperature of 890° C. and a coiling temperature of 630° C. to produce A steel plate with a thickness of 5mm is formed. These steel sheets were cut into predetermined widths, roll-formed into tubes, and then welded by high-frequency electric welding to manufacture electric-welded steel pipes with an outer diameter of 90 mm. Furthermore, the obtained electric-welded steel pipe was heated to 980°C by high-frequency induction heating, and reduced-rolled to produce a steel pipe with an outer diameter of 30 mm and a wall thickness of 4.5 mm (t / D: 0.15) or a steel pipe with an outer diameter of 30 mm. 22mm, 4.5mm thick (t / D: 0.20) steel pipe (steel pipe for hollow stabilizer bars). Immediately after reducing rolling, ...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hollow stabilizer bar used in vehicles such as automobiles, a steel pipe for a hollow stabilizer bar as a raw material thereof, and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In vehicles such as automobiles, stabilizers are used to reduce the vibration of the vehicle body when cornering and ensure the stability of the vehicle body when driving at high speed. Traditionally, stabilizer bars were manufactured by machining solid materials such as bar steel into desired shapes, but in recent years, hollow stabilizer bars using hollow materials such as seamless steel pipes and electric welded steel pipes have gradually increased in order to achieve weight reduction. [0003] In the case of changing from a solid stabilizer bar design to a hollow stabilizer bar, in order to maintain the same roll stiffness, the outer diameter of the hollow stabilizer bar needs to be larger than that of the solid stabilizer ...
