Abstract
An electric resistance welded steel pipe, and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. An electric resistance welded steel pipe has a welded portion that includes a heat-affected zone having a steel microstructure principally including a bainitic ferrite phase and/or a bainite phase. The steel microstructure at half the wall thickness includes a bainitic ferrite phase and/or a bainite phase in a total area ratio of 90% or more. In the steel microstructure located 1 mm in the wall thickness direction, the bainitic ferrite phase and/or the bainite phase has an average grain size of 20 μm or less. The average grain size of the bainitic ferrite phase and/or the bainite phase located 1 mm in the wall thickness direction is 0.5 times or more and 2 times or less the average grain size of the bainitic ferrite phase and/or the bainite phase at half the wall thickness.
