The cold-rolling and annealing textures of a low carbon steel processed by two stages of cold-rolling which were separated by an intermediate annealing were investigated. As previously reported, the (110)[001] component in the annealing texture of the intermediately annealed sheet was remarkably increased by quenching the hot strip from 715°C before the first stage cold-rolling. By quenching the intermediately annealed sheet from 715°C followed by cold-rolling to a reduction of approximately 60%, the (110)[001] component rotated to the {111}〈112〉 orientation and from this orientation a sharp (110)[001] type texture was produced by the final annealing at 700°C. The (110)[001] component in the finally annealed sheet increased during the grain growth on annealing at 800°C for 1 hr.
