<p>A steering column includes a telescopic mechanism and an impact absorbing mechanism. The steering column includes an inner tube (6) that accommodates a steering shaft (8) and an outer tube (3) that is held by a housing (1) and that is coupled with the inner tube (6). A projecting portion (3a) is formed on an outer peripheral surface of a base end portion of the outer tube (3) and then the projecting portion (3a) is brought into contact with a tensioner bushing (4a) to thereby restrict movement of the outer tube (3) in a direction indicated by an arrow (al), thus preventing the outer tube (3) from slipping off from the housing (1).</p> |
