The steering device includes a column pipe, an outer housing, a fixed bracket, a stopper bracket, a tightening member having a bolt shaft, a slide guide, an elastic stopper rubber material mounted on the slide guide, and an elastic pushing member in which torsional coil spring portions are formed at both axial ends of a pushing shaft portion. The bolt shaft is passed through a tightening hole of the outer housing and a support hole of the fixed bracket along shaft support portions of the slide guide, and the elastic pushing member is locked and fixed to the fixed bracket.
