Abstract
A continuous casting mold includes mold plates which enclose the casting cross section and in which cooling channels extend. The mold plates are connectable to a water box by screw elements which are formed by fastening bolts having a threaded shank which is screwable into fastening threads located in the mold plate. To achieve a uniform cooling in a continuous casting mold, the fastening threads are arranged such that their center longitudinal axes extend between two adjacent coolant channels of the plurality of cooling channels. The diameter of each threaded bore hole of the fastening threads is greater than the distance between the two adjacent cooling channels, and each bore hole of the fastening threads ends at a distance from the floor of the plurality of cooling channels to define the screw-in depth of the fastening bolts.
