An object of the present invention is to provide a three-layer clad material in which stainless steel is used as the substrate, Ni or an Ni alloy is monolithically pressure-welded to either principal plane of the substrate, and Cu is monolithically pressure-welded to the other principal plane, or a two- or three-layer clad material in which Ni or an Ni alloy is monolithically pressure-welded to at least one principal plane of the substrate, wherein this high-strength, high-drawability clad material allows the thickness ratio of the stainless steel to be further increased, mechanical strength (tensile strength) to be raised above that of a conventional two- or three-layer clad material, and the thickness of the entire clad material to be reduced. Uniform tension can be created across the entire thin sheet, folding or creasing can be prevented from occurring during pressure welding, the thickness of the thin Ni and Cu sheets prior to pressure welding can be reduced to about 5 mum, and the thickness ratio of each of the thin sheets in the three-layer clad material for cell cases can be reduced to about 0.5% of the entire thickness by adopting a method in which specially configured and sized tension bridle rolls are placed upstream of pressure rolls, and Ni, Cu, and other thin sheets are fed to the pressure rolls through the agency of these tension bridle rolls.
