An exemplary embodiment of an aluminum type plated steel sheet which excels in discoloration resistance, and weldability, which does not decorate after re-heating and which can prevent increasing of strength, and a heat shrink band using the same are provided. For example, the heat shrink band can be made of an aluminum type plated steel sheet consisting of a steel sheet being composed of, e.g., not more than about 0.005 mass % of C; not more than about 0.005 mass % of N; not less than about 0.1 mass % and not more than about 0.5 mass % of Si; not more than about 0.1 mass % of P; not more than about 0.02 mass % of S; not less than about 1.05 mass % and not more than 2.0 mass % of Mn; not more than 1.0 mass % of sol Al; a residual amount of Fe and inevitable impurities, and an aluminum type plated layer mainly consisting of Al being deposited thereon. Such exemplary sheet can be prevented from a discoloration upon, e.g., being re-heated at a temperature of not less than about 500° C. to not more than about 700° C.
