A quench solidification method, wherein a steel cast strip having a mean
grain size 50 .mu.m or more is prepared and then the steel cast strip is
rolled to produce a non-oriented electrical steel sheet having high
magnetic flux density in both L and C directions. However the magnetic
flux density reduces when the cold reduction rate exceeds 70%. To avoid
this problem the non-oriented electrical steel sheet is manufactured with
a ratio of at least 4 of the integrated intensity of the {100} plane for
a given sample of steel to the integrated intensity of {100} plane for a
"random" sample in which crystal grains have random orientations; and a
cold reduction rate of the cold-rolling is between 70% and 85%. The
superheating degree of the molten steel can be 70.degree. C. or more.
