Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A METHOD OF PRODUCING A COATED STEEL STRIP COMPRISING ROLLING TO INTERMEDIATE GAUGE STRIP, UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS THAT SAID STEEL IS FREE OF CRITICAL STRAIN, A STEEL CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF 0.30% MAX. CARBON, 0.20 TO 1.7% MANGANESE, 0.040% MAX. PHOSPHORUS, 0.040% MAX. SULFUR, 0.04% MAX. SILICON, BALANCE IRON, DECARBURIZING SAID STEEL TO A CARBON CONTENT OF LESS THAN .010% AT A TEMPERATURE INSUFFICIENT TO CAUSE EXCESSIVE GRAIN GROWTH THEREIN, COLD REDUCING SAID STEEL DIRECTLY TO FINAL GAUGE BY AN AMOUNT, AT LEAST EQUAL TO 15%, WHICH UPON CONTINUOUS ANNEALING WILL PRODUCE A STEEL HAVING A GRAIN SIZE OF 100 TO 200 GRAINS PER SQUARE INCH AT 100 MAGNIFICATIONS, CONTINUOUSLY ANNEALING SAID STEEL BELOW THE LOWER CRITICAL TEMPERATURE, AND COATING SAID STEEL WITH MOLTEN METAL.
