Abstract
An electric steering column apparatus includes a pressing mechanism for reducing the play between an outer jacket and an inner jacket. A pressing mechanism has a first pressing portion disposed on the outer jacket and pressing a lower surface of the inner jacket upward and a second pressing portion disposed on an axially front end side of the outer jacket and pressing an upper surface of the inner jacket downward. A tubular member housing a telescopic nut is disposed between the first pressing portion and the second pressing portion in an axial direction so as to face the second pressing portion in an up-down direction and fixed to the lower surface of the inner jacket.
