Abstract

A martensitic stainless steel material contains, in mass %, C: 0.030% or less, Ni: 5.00 to 7.00%, Cr: 10.00 to 14.00%, and Cu: more than 1.00 to 3.50%. On two line segments LS of 1000 μm extending in a wall thickness direction with arbitrary two points as a center located at positions at a depth of 2 mm from the inner surface, respectively, a degree of Cr segregation ΔCr defined by Formula (1) described in the description, a degree of Mo segregation ΔMo defined by Formula (2) described in the description, and a degree of Cu segregation ΔCu defined by Formula (3) described in the description satisfy Formula (4): ΔCr+ΔMo+ΔCu≤A  (4) where, when the yield strength is 758 to less than 862 MPa, A in Formula (4) is 0.70, and when the yield strength is 862 MPa or more, A in Formula (4) is 0.50.
