Inner surface cracking, the shear deformation due to bending, bending grain boundaries tearing the inner surface and its vicinity of the bent portion by molding, is considered to be generated by its tear progresses. Therefore, the metal structure on which a metal structure area ratio of ferrite is 80% or more, making the ferrite crystal grains and fine (i.e., be 10μm or less average grain size of the ferrite crystal grains), and, bringing the ferrite grain shape spherical (i.e., to the average aspect ratio of ferrite grains than 2.0), the inner surface cracking that may occur as described above is suppressed (i.e.,耐内surface cracking resistance is considered to be) improved.
[0017]
Metal structure area ratio of ferrite is 80% or more, V c90 is realized such as by reducing the hardenability of steel by the more than 200.

The average crystal grain size of ferrite crystal grains: 10 [mu] m or less
in thickness central portion of the metal structure in the L cross section of the base metal, the average crystal grain size of the ferrite crystal grains is 10 [mu] m or less. Thus, the forming distortion by bending becomes easier to evenly allocated to each ferrite grain, as a result, it is possible to improve the耐内surface cracking.
If the average crystal grain size of the ferrite grains exceeds 10 [mu] m, by forming distortion due bending is concentrated on the coarse ferrite grain, the inner surface cracking is induced (i.e., degrades耐内surface cracking resistance) when the is there.
The average grain size of the ferrite grains is preferably 8μm or less.
There is no particular restriction on the lower limit of the average crystal grain size of ferrite crystal grains. In terms of steel production suitability, the average crystal grain size of the ferrite grains is preferably 3μm or more, and more preferably is 4μm or more.

If the average aspect ratio of ferrite grains exceeds 2.0, the grain boundary of ferrite crystal grains is easily continuously in the axial direction of the tube. As a result, once a crack occurs on the inner surface of the electric resistance welded steel pipe, cracks developed in the tube axis direction, which may develop into a continuous crack (i.e., the inner surface cracking).
The average aspect ratio of ferrite grains is preferably 1.8 or less, more preferably 1.6 or less.

In the obtained ellipse, the ratio of major axis length to minor axis length (i.e., major axis length / minor axis length ratio), a ferrite crystal grain aspect ratio.
In this way, the 200 [mu] m (tube axis direction) × 500 [mu] m all ferrite crystal grains contained in the field of view of (thickness direction), obtains a respective aspect ratio. The resulting measured value (aspect ratio) is the arithmetic mean, the obtained arithmetic mean value as the average crystal grain size of the ferrite crystal grains.
[0055]
Incidentally, generally, the long-axis direction tube axis direction of the electric resistance welded steel pipe (i.e., the rolling direction during the manufacture of hot-rolled steel sheet which is a material of the electric resistance welded steel pipe) substantially coincides with, the short axis direction of the electric resistance welded steel pipe substantially coincides with the thickness direction.
[0056]

When diameter reduction is 2.0% or less, in the resulting electric resistance welded steel pipe, easily it is realized that the average aspect ratio of ferrite grains is 2.0 or less.
[0076]
Each step of the above method A does not affect the chemical composition of the steel.

<(Evaluation of inner surface crack depth) Bending Test>
For the obtained electric resistance welded steel pipe, make bending test simulating production of the torsion beam was evaluated inner surface crack depth. It will be described in detail below.
[0088]
Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the outline of the bending test shown schematically.
