Abstract

When a cold reduced steel of which chemical composition is substantially controlled within the range of 10x[S]% to 2.00% [Mn], 0.003 to 0.02% [N] and (<5.times.10.sup.31 4)/[N]% [Al] is subjected to a full continuous annealing process comprising a heating-up step of Ac.sub.1 to 900.degree. C .times. 5 to 180 sec., a rapid cooling step of the heating-up temperature to about room temperature by water-spray, reheating step of the room temperature to 150.degree. C to 450.degree. C .times. 5 to 300 sec., and then final cooling- and coiling step, high bake-hardenability and excellent non-aging property are given to the above steel with ease.
