An apparatus for manufacturing electric resistance welded pipe, in which two across-opening-facing end parts (2a, 2b) of an open pipe (1) including an opening (2) extending in a running direction are melted by an induction current generated by an induction heating means and joined together at a join portion. The induction heating means includes a first induction coil (3), and the first induction coil (3) is disposed above the opening (2) so as not to encircle the outer circumference of the open pipe (1) and so that a primary current circuit is formed straddling the opening (2). |
