Abstract
A continuous casting mold for casting a strand of metal includes a sidewall having an inner circumference to define a mold cavity which has a pouring opening for liquid metal and an outlet opening for a cast strand. The mold cavity has a cross section sized to correspond to a basic shape of the cast strand. The sidewall is provided with a profiling in the form of a corrugation that extends in a casting direction and forms grooves extending in substantial parallel relationship from the pouring opening to the outlet opening of the mold cavity. A ratio of the inner circumference of the mold cavity to a width of each of the grooves is greater than 30, and the width of the groove is in the range of 1.5 mm to 30 mm.
