In a method for producing a hot strip by hot rough rolling, a steel slab heated to a rolling temperature to obtain a steel band, and hot finishing rolling the steel band in a continuous manner, the improvements comprising overlapping a forward end portion of a steel band which is being rolled by the rough hot rolling over a finishing end portion of a similarly rolled preceding steel band before or during the hot finishing rolling step, with insertion between the overlapped portions of the both hot bands of an oxide scale-fusing agent which reacts with the oxide scale present on the opposing surfaces of the overlapped portions by the heat of the overlapped portions and forms a low-melting point substance, fixing temporarily the overlapped portions by means of a metallic nail-like member driven into the overlapped portions, bonding the overlapped portions by reduction, and subjecting the steel bands thus bonded to the hot finishing rolling continuously.
