Abstract
In a method of introducing a starter bar head of a starter bar into the open ends mould of a horizontal continuous casting plant, the mould is removed from the continuous casting plant and placed vertical. Then the starter bar head separated from the starter bar is threaded into the mould and fixed in its position relative thereto. The mould, together with the starter bar head fixed to it, is installed into the plant. Subsequently, the starter bar head is coupled with the starter bar lying in the strand guide and then the fixation of the starter bar head is undone. In an arrangement for carrying out this method, the starter bar head has a larger longitudinal extension than the secondary cooling apparatus. One end of it projects into the mould cavity and the other end is connectable with the starter bar outside of the secondary cooling apparatus. A fixing element for the starter bar head introduced into the mould is provided.
