Abstract
A steel sheet for hot pressing includes in a chemical composition, in percent by mass, C of 0.1% to 0.4%, Si of greater than 0% to 2.0%, Mn of 0.5% to 3.0%, P of greater than 0% to 0.015%, S of greater than 0% to 0.01%, B of 0.0003% to 0.01%, N of greater than 0% to 0.05%, Al in a content of 2×[N]% to 0.3% at a Si content of greater than 0.5% to 2.0%; or Al in a content of (0.20+2×[N]−0.40×[Si]N)% to 0.3% at a Si content of 0% to 0.5%, where [N] and [Si] are contents of N and Si, respectively, in mass percent, with the remainder being iron and inevitable impurities, where contents of Ti, Zr, Hf, and Ta, of the inevitable impurities, are each controlled to 0.005% or lower. The steel sheet includes nitride-based inclusions with an equivalent circle diameter of 1 μm or more in a number density of 0.10 per square millimeter.
