Abstract (en)

Provided is a steel member which exhibits high strength and sufficiently excellent toughness of the thicknesswise central portion even when PWHT is performed for a long time after welding. The steel member includes C, Si, Mn, P, S, Al, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, N, B, and V in a defined range, wherein Nb content is suppressed to 0.005% or less, Ti content is suppressed to 0.001% or less, and the total content of Ca, Mg, REM, and Zr is suppressed to 0.0010% or less, the balance being iron and inevitable impurities, and wherein a thickness is 100 mm or less, a structure in the thicknesswise central portion satisfies all the following (a) and (b), and Charpy absorbed energy at -38°C is 100 J or more: (a) a structure is at least one of tempered bainite and tempered martensite, and (b) a value represented by D/d is 54 or less, where D is an average equivalent circle diameter of crystal grains surrounded by large angle grain boundaries with crystal misorientation of 15° or more between two adjacent crystal grains, and d is a maximum diameter of grain boundary carbide.
