The texture inhomogeneity in cross shear rolled grain oriented Si steel was investigated by means of the through thickness texture analysis. For the chosen rolling reductions (55%, 66.5%) and mismatch speed ratios (1.0, 1.1,1.3), the deformation textures in various thickness layers consist of three major components, i.e. strong γ-fiber,medium α-fiber and weak η-fiber, and they show an asymmetrical distribution throughout the thickness. The effect of reduction on the texture gradient is found to be more significant at and near the center layer; however, the effect subsurface layers, that may favour the formation of a sharp Goss texture during the subsequent annealing.
