History
The first in the USSR rolls for hot-rolling mills were produced from ingots weighing up to 40
tons at Uralmashplant in 1934. The plant began producing large ingots, weighing 60 tons
and more, in 1935-1936, which allowed to manufacture large backup rolls for rolling mills.
Because of exceptionally high requirements to the quality of metal used for production of
cold mill rolls, re-tooling and modernization of the production plant were carried out by the
1940. Since then, rolls for cold-rolling mills have become an integral part of Uralmashplant's
assortment.
Uralmashplant is rated among the leaders
at the world's roll market due to renovated
production capacities.
Based on the manufacturing facilities, the
plant has mastered production of a new
type of rolls with 3 to 5 percent Cr content,
as well as higher content of alloying
elements, which allows to make the service
life of rolls 1.5 to 2 times longer.

Note
For hardness testing, Brinell (HB), Shore (HSD, HSC), and Equotype testers (HLE, HLD, HLG)
are available with Uralmashplant.
After power current hardening the depth of the working surface is no less than:
- Work rolls for Cold-rolling Mills of 9Х1, 9Х2, 9Х2МФ, 8Х2СГФ steel grades – 22 mm;
8Х3СГФ – 30 mm
- Backup rolls for Cold-rolling Mills of 90ХФ, 75ХМФ, 75Х2МФ steel grades – 50 mm;
75Х3МФА – 55 mm; 45Х5МФ, EBR 42 – 100 mm on radius.
Hardness variation along the roll barrel length is within 2-3 HSD.

Built-up (sleeved) backup rolls
Sleeves contribute to improvement of material utilization, since the material of sleeves is
mostly consumed, and the roll shafts are used more than once. With roll shafts being re-used 3-
5 times, the coefficient of material consumption for sleeved rolls is 2-5 times as low as for solid
forged rolls.
A built-up (sleeved) roll consists of a steel shaft and a sleeve.
The fundamental advantage of built-up rolls is that sleeves of highly durable materials can be
used.
Forged, and especially high-carbon cast structure, changing due to heat treatment and a
large quantity of alloying element carbides, provides for high and uniform hardness and
wear-resistance.
Longevity of sleeved rolls is 2-3 times as high as that of solid-forged rolls.
Design features
The sleeve makes the working surface 2 or more times thicker
Roll spindle can be used more than once

Forged steel rolls for Hot-rolling Mills
Blooming, slabbing and breakdown mills, as well as roughing stands of section and structural
mills require that the rolls endure high temperatures and heavy dynamic loads.
Solid-forged rolls made of carbon tool steels are characterized by high hardness and wear-
resistance. Depending on the service conditions, heat checking resistance is provided by
complex alloying using either chromium, molybdenum, or vanadium.
Design features
Roll ends can be made in the form of tenons, flat (fork type), cylindrical (with splines or
key grooves).

Solid-forged backup rolls
for Cold- and Hot-rolling Mills
Rolls are the primary tool for shaping the material, setting the roll final dimensions, surface
finish and mechanical properties.
Depending on the service conditions, the strength of backup rolls is achieved thanks to
complex alloying using chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, etc.
The roll metal quality is inspected by means of ultrasonic flaw detectors at all main
manufacturing stages.
Design features
Carbon steels, high-carbon tool steels and alloyed steels are used to ensure high hardness
and wear-resistance of rolls
All backup rolls are made of vacuum degassed steel.
Guaranteed features of solid-forged backup rolls for cold- and hot-rolling mills
High and uniform hardness after power current hardening (within 1-2 HSD over the barrel)
Effective layer depth is min. 40–100mm over the radius
High strength of the roll material combined with ductility
No tendency towards cracking or barrel surface spalling
Absence of metallurgical and structural defects
Minimal level of residual stress
No design flaws impairing the roll performance
8
Forged steel work rolls for Cold-rolling Mills
Work rolls for cold rolling are made of alloyed steels.
The complex of heat treatment provides for the necessary mechanical properties of the
hardened layer due to creating a uniform fine-grain structure.
Final stabilizing heat treatment is intended to reduce and equalize the residual thermal
stresses.

Quality control
Quality control during the roll manufacture is carried out at every stage of the workflow.
Main control operations
Chemical composition of steel – by heat sampling
Roll surface hardness – using the Brinell, Shore and Equotip Hardness testers;
Roll material quality – visually, by means of ultrasonic and magnetic particle inspection
Surface roughness – by means of
comparison to the reference block, or
employing the contact method using
profilometer-profilograph SURFTEST
Dimensional conformance – using
universal and special means and methods
of measuring.
