High Speed Steel
Indefinite Chilled Iron igh Speed Steel (HSS) rolls are composed of high alloy and high
Nodular Iron carbon HSS outer shell with either a forged steel or nodular iron
Special Cast Steel core. This type of molten metal for HSS is poured along the core
material continuously or spun cast. HSS provides excellent hardness, wear
resistance, and high temperature properties. The advantages of these
high-speed rolls are:
1. The high-carbon, high-alloy outer shell has high hardness at
high temperatures, providing excellent wear resistance.
2. The outer shell has a fine microstructure without gravity
segregation due to its special casting method.
3. The boundary between the outer shell and core is combined
by metallic diffusion.
Applications for these rolls include hot strip mill finishing train, rod and
bar mill finishing, and universal mill finishing. Because of the excellent
properties of these rolls, new applications are continuously being
investigated and tried.
