Abstract
A high-strength steel sheet having a composition containing C: 0.09% to 0.17%, Si: 0.6% to 1.7%, Mn: 3.5% or less, P: 0.03% or less, S: 0.005% or less, Al: 0.08% or less, N: 0.006% or less, Ti: 0.05% or less, and B: 0.0002% to 0.0030% on a mass basis, the remainder being Fe and inevitable impurities. The steel sheet also has a microstructure containing less than 20% (including 0%) of a ferrite phase, 75% or more (including 100%) of a tempered martensite phase, 10% or less (including 0%) of an untempered martensite phase, and less than 5% (including 0%) of a retained austenite phase in terms of area fraction. The tempered martensite phase has a Vickers hardness of 280 to 340 and a tensile strength of 950 MPa to 1,120 MPa.
