In this paper, the orange peel defect in the surface range of the st14 steel sheet has been investigated using the electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) technique. It has been found that the orange peel defect in the st14steel sheet was resulted from the local coarse grains which were produced during hot-rolling due to the critical deformation in dual-phase zone. During deep drawing, the coarse grains with {100}＜001＞ microtexture can slip on the {112}＜111＞ slip system to form bulging and yields orange peel defects, while the coarse grains with {112}＜110＞orientation do not form the defect as the Schmid factor of {112}＜111＞ slip system in it equals zero.
