The present invention provides a steering apparatus having simple construction, and good left and right balance of the clamping force, such that the clamping force does not fluctuate depending on the forward-backward position of the steering wheel 103. When fastening the tilt and telescopic function, by rotating an operation lever 349, the peak of a movable cam 344 runs over the peak of a stationary cam 343, which pushes the stationary cam 343 to the right side, and pulls a clamping rod 34 to the left side at the same time, so as to clamp side plates 32A, 32B. The inside surfaces 321A, 321B of the side plates 32A, 32B clamp flat surface section 61A, 62B of a distance bracket 6. The flat surface sections 62A, 62B elastically deform toward the inside in the width direction of the vehicle, and a pair of left and right clamping sections 66A, 66B of bent sections 64A, 64B clamp the outer circumferential surface of an inner column 2 from both the left and right sides.
