摘要:
Disclosed is a seamless steel pipe for line pipes which has high strength and stable toughness while exhibiting good sulfide corrosion cracking resistance over a temperature range from low temperature to room temperature. The seamless steel pipe has a chemical composition consisting of, in mass%, 0.03-0.08% of C, 0.05-0.5% of Si, 1.0-3.0% of Mn, more than 0.4% and not more than 1.2% of Mo, 0.005-0.100% of Al, 0.001-0.005% of Ca and the balance of Fe and impurities including N, P, S, O and Cu. In the impurities, N is not more than 0.01%, P is not more than 0.05%, S is not more than 0.01%, O is not more than 0.01%, and Cu is not more than 0.1%. The seamless steel pipe has a microstructure composed of a bainite-martensite duplex structure.
