The outer column 25 has a front-side small-diameter tubular portion 37 into which the inner column 24 is press fitted. The inner-circumferential surface of the front-side small-diameter tubular portion 37 and the outer-circumferential surface of the inner column 24 come in contact with an interference fit at only a plurality of contact locations separated in the circumferential direction. At least one location in the axial direction of the column-side bracket 26 is welded to the outer-circumferential surface of the front-side small-diameter tubular portion 37 at only two weld locations that are close in the circumferential direction.
