Abstract

A continuous casting mold having the wall thickness of each of parts corresponding to a point where molten steel begins to solidify during continuous casting is arranged to be locally thinner than other parts of the mold. High frequency oscillation is applied to the locally thinned parts to vibrate them to a sufficient amplitude to prevent the seizure of a cast steel piece from taking place due to the heat thereof for improvement in the surface quality thereof.
