Abstract
A method for producing a high fatigue life quenched/tempered steel pipe comprises a quenching treatment of keeping an unquenched starting steel pipe having a composition that comprises, % by mass, C: 0.1 to 0.4%, Si: 0.5 to 1.5%, Mn: 0.3 to 2%, P: at most 0.02%, S: at most 0.01%, Cr: 0.1 to 2%, Ti: 0.01 to 0.1%, Nb: 0.01 to 0.1%, Al: at most 0.1%, B: 0.0005 to 0.01%, and N: at most 0.01%, with a balance of Fe and inevitable impurities, at 900 to 1100° C. for 10 to 60 seconds and then rapidly cooling it. The cooled pipe is subjected to a tempering treatment of keeping the pipe at 280 to 380° C. for 10 to 60 minutes.
