Damage in hot rolling work rolls Abstract Samples from a couple of work rolls employed in a hot rolling steel strip mill were examined by scanning electron microscopy in order to study their surface ,as well as the wear mechanisms responsible for their damage. It was found that a series of cracks develop within the rolls at the beginning of their operational cycle, these cracks follow the primary carbide network and are attributed to be caused either by thermal fatigue or contact stresses or by a combination of both. Work rolls heat up as a result of contact with the steel strip and an oxide layer forms on them. It is observed that oxidation proceeds through the cracks, isolating healthy material with brittle layers, a characteristic which might explain the high wear rate encountered in some stands of the mill. ?1999 Elsevier Science S.A.

Keywords: Hot rolling; Steel; Wear; Oxidation; Work rolls Introduction Some of the most important segments in the operating costs of a modern hot rolling mill are related to the work rolls, since they are expensive and a large stock must be kept in hand to assure the continuous operation of the mill. The work rolls have to be changed frequently, accounting for downtime, and they must be ground to their required profile (crown) before being replaced into the mill. In many cases rolls are changed because their surface has deteriorated, rather than because of changes in shape or crown due to thermal expansion or wear. Previous research has pointed out that thermal and mechanical fatigue, as well as abrasion due to hard iron oxides, are the most important factors affecting the rate of surface deterioration in work rolls of second generation type mills. New generation mills rolling strips to thinner gauges at higher speeds seems to benefit from the oxide formed at their surface,but there is also evidence that this oxidation might be deleterious in some cases. The aim of this work is to present the results from
