A dummy bar for use in a strip steel casting machine of the type including a continuous casting mold having a sealing plane between a pair of broad side walls and a pair of narrow side walls, and at least a first set of driven rollers or rolls located in spaced relation to and downstream of the outlet of said mold. The dummy bar is formed of a single piece of steel plate, and includes an upper contour adapted to form a cast connection with the leading end of the strip being cast, a sealing portion, and means for supporting and withdrawing the forward end of the strip from the mold. The bar, measured from the upper end of the sealing portion to the bottom of the lower portion, is longer than the spacing between the sealing plane of the mold and the common axle plane of the first roller or roller pair.
