Narrow strip mill rolls

Flexibility to meet specific customer needs
We have been in the business of making narrow strip mill rolls for many years. During this time, we have established methods to manufacture customized rolls for specific customer needs, no matter what they may be.

We produce 2 high, 4 high, 6 high and other mill configurations for cold and hot rolling of strip and wire made from carbon steel, stainless steel, silicon steel, non ferrous metals, super alloys and precious metals.

The Åkers product segment of narrow strip mill rolls comprises:

Work rolls

Intermediate rolls

Back Up rolls

Narrow strip mill rolls are manufactured at our plants in Söderfors, Sweden and Ravne na Koroskem, Slovenia using the most modern methods available. Advanced computer guided heat treatment equipment is used for through hardening and induction hardening.

A carefully selected group of world leading steel suppliers provide the raw materials we use for our narrow strip mill rolls ensuring high and uniform quality levels.
The table “main roll grades” gives a general overview.

Further information for each steel grade is given in our product data sheets.
