Methods of x-ray diffractometry and transmission electron microscopy were used to study the crystallographic texture and dislocation structure of low-alloyed steel after controlled rolling. It was demonstrated that the formation of crystallographic texture and the corresponding dislocation structure were interrelated. These processes were a

manifestation of different sides of one phenomenon of developed plastic strain. The fractal dimensions of cellular dislocation structure boundaries of the main texture components in deformed steel were determined using the multiple grid method.
