Abstract
A production process for producing a hollow steel tube of a high strength includes the steps of a tube preparation step of producing a seamless steel tube of a heavy thickness containing flaws of less than 0.25 mm in depth in an inner periphery thereof, a tube inner periphery correction step of correcting at least the flaws having a width of 0.001 mm or less so as to have a depth of 0.15 mm or less, and a hardening step of hardening the seamless steel tube across a whole thickness thereof to a hardness of from 450 to 670 in Vickers hardness (Hv). The production process enables not only to produce a hollow steel tube of a high strength at a less production cost but also to adapt it to exhibit such a high torsional fatigue fracture resistance and a high impact strength that it is applicable to axles for large size automobiles producing high outputs.
