HIGH SPEED STEEL ROLLS FOR HOT STRIP MILLS
The microstructure consists of tempered bainitic / martensitic matrix with primary and secondary carbides. Primary carbides MC, M7C3, M6C and M2C are originated during the eutectic solidification. Secondary carbides are precipitated during the High Temperature quench and tempering. The rolls are cast with the right structure to undergo the High Temperature quenching to promote the right precipitation of secondary carbides and optimum material properties. Excellent wear resistance and fire crack resistance and very good oxidation behaviour at rolling temperatures under the adequate rolling conditions are the main features of this grade.

Features
of High Speed Steel Rolls For Hot Strip Mills
- Excellent Wear Resistance under High Load and Speed
A tempered martensitic matrix reinforced with finely dispersed MC, M₂C, and M₆C carbides ensures stable wear performance under high rolling loads and high line speeds.
- Superior Thermal Fatigue and Crack Resistance
Optimized carbide size and distribution reduce thermal stress concentration, effectively suppressing thermal crack initiation and propagation during severe heating–cooling cycles.
- Outstanding Hot Hardness Retention
High-speed steel exhibits excellent red hardness, minimizing hardness degradation at elevated temperatures and supporting long and stable rolling campaigns.
-
High Strength and Accident Resistance
The combination of high strength and good fracture toughness provides reliable resistance to spalling, edge chipping, and rolling accidents in demanding hot rolling conditions.
