A method and apparatus for the continuous casting of composite metal members wherein molten metal is directly cast between two spaced generally parallel metal strips to form a composite member having enhanced surface qualities, formability, and strength. The method comprises feeding at least two strips of metal into a cooled mold system while pouring a molten stream of metal therebetween and forming the composite member by cooling in a cooled mold system until the composite is solidified as the exit point removing the composite from the cooled mold system and rolling the cooled composite to obtain a desired final thickness. Multiple strip and thin coating methods and apparatus are also disclosed.
