PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pouring nozzle which, in a method for continuously casting a thin strip-like slab, can uniformize the temperature of the whole of molten steel within a pouring basin to prevent the occurrence of a solidified product on the surface of the molten steel and, at the same time, can realize stable and uniformized solidification. SOLUTION: A pouring nozzle 13 includes a cylindrical part 2 provided in the upper part and a flat part 1 provided in the lower part. The flat part 1 includes narrow wall surfaces 6, 6 and wide wall surfaces 7, 7. A flat nozzle hole having a shape along the narrow wall surfaces 6, 6 and the wide wall surfaces 7, 7 is provided within the flat part 1. A lateral opening 4 is provided in the narrow wall surface 6, and a lateral opening 5 is provided in the wide wall surface 7. A slit-shaped downward extended opening, which is in communication with the lateral opening 4, is provided at the lower end of the flat nozzle hole. The center part of the lower end of the flat nozzle hole is connected by a connecting part. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
