A rolled round steel material contains C: 0.38 to 0.55%, Si: 1.0% or less, Mn: 0.20 to 2.0%, S: 0.005 to 0.10%, Cr: 0.01 to 2.0%, Al: 0.003 to 0.10%, B: 0.0005 to 0.0030%, Ti: 0.047% or less, Cu: 0 to 1.0%, Ni: 0 to 3.0%, Mo: 0 to 0.50%, Nb: 0 to 0.10%, V: 0 to 0.30%, Ca: 0 to 0.005%, and Pb: 0 to 0.30%, a remaining portion being constituted by Fe and an impurities, the impurities containing P in an amount of 0.030% or less and N in an amount of 0.008% or less, and has a chemical composition satisfying [3.4N≤Ti≤3.4N+0.02]. The microstructure is constituted by ferrite (F), lamellar pearlite (LP), and cementite (C) and microstructural features vary in terms of the lateral, longitudinal and central portions of the steel. This steel material has a high base material toughness and good machinability without performing thermal refining.
