Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide an Ni-based alloy pipe or tube for nuclear power with reduced rate of SCC crack propagation. The Ni-based alloy pipe or tube for nuclear power according to the present invention is an Ni-based alloy pipe or tube having a wall thickness of 15 to 55 mm, having a chemical composition of, in mass %: 0.010 to 0.025% C; 0.10 to 0.50% Si; 0.01 to 0.50% Mn; up to 0.030% P; up to 0.002% S; 52.5 to 65.0% Ni; 20.0 to 35.0% Cr; 0.03 to 0.30% Mo; up to 0.018% Co; up to 0.015% Sn; 0.005 to 0.050% N; 0 to 0.300% Ti; 0 to 0.200% Nb; 0 to 0.300% Ta; 0% or more and less than 0.03% Zr; and the balance being Fe and impurities, wherein the Ni-based alloy pipe or tube has a microstructure being an austenite single phase, and the chemical composition satisfies the following equation, Eq. (1):−0.0020≤[N]/14−{[Ti]/47.9+[Nb]/92.9+[Ta]/180.9+[Zr]/91.2}≤0.0015  Eq. (1).For the element symbols in Eq. (1), the contents of the corresponding elements in mass % are substituted.
