Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rolling method for a metal tube by which products having a wide range of wall-thickness are rolled by suppressing irregurality in the outside shape and generation of surface flaws and reducing the number of finishing stands in the sizing rolling with a sizer or the like. SOLUTION: When the number of stands is taken as N stands, by adjusting the gap at the (N-1)th stand in accordance with the ratio t/D of the wall- thickness (t) of the product of the metal tube to the outside diameter D, the working ratio of the outside diameter at the N-th stand is changed. Preferably, the working ratio of the outside diameter at the N-th stand is defined as the range of SN to TN which are determined by the equations: SN=1.3.(t/D)+0.05, TN=3.1.(t/D)+0.40. Further preferably, by adjusting the gap at the (N-2)th stand, the working ratio of the outside diameter at the (N-1)th stand is defined as the range of SN-1 to TN-1 which are determined by the equations: SN-1=5.0.(t/D)+0.3, TN-1=5.0.(t/D)+1.9.

[0005] In the rolling of the finishing stand, if the degree of working of the outer diameter of the finishing stand is too high, biting flaws are likely to occur at the roll edge portion, and if the degree of working of the outer diameter is too low, the roll is not filled with material. The resulting outer surface of the metal tube is not perfectly round and the outer diameter is likely to be irregular. The biting at the edge is likely to occur in a thin material that easily fills the roll, and in a thick material, the outer shape is likely to be irregular due to the unfilled roll. Therefore, in order to perform rolling from the thin material to the thick material using the same finishing stand, it is necessary to finish the outer surface gradually closer to a perfect circle by using three to five finishing stands.

Table 2 shows the results of the measurement of the roundness of the metal tube obtained by the above rolling and the state of occurrence of external flaws. The roundness is a value obtained by dividing an outer radius difference (maximum outer radius−minimum outer radius) by an average outer radius in%, and a value of 5% or less is regarded as acceptable. The outer radius refers to the distance from the center of gravity to the surface in a product cross section. Outer surface flaws: ◎: no flaws are observed on the surface, ○: a product that does not have any problem on the product because it appears in a thin pattern in a part of the longitudinal direction, x:
And In the overall evaluation, products having wall thicknesses of 7, 28 and 50 mm were judged to pass if the number of stands was 8, the roundness was 5% or less, and the outer surface flaw could be rolled with ◎ or ○.
