Abstract (en)

A hollow cylindrical preform made of steel contg. at least 0.2 wt % C and at least 3 wt % carbide forming elements such as Cr, Mo and B is heated in an inert atmosphere to its austenising temp and then cooled to a metastable austenite range which is below the recrystallisation temp. and above the martensite forming temp. It is then pressure rolled to produce the required profile and rapidly cooled to below the martensite forming temp. After martensitic transformation it is tempered at 400-600 deg C to precipitate the special carbides before being cooled to room temp. Pref., the forming tool, ie the roller is preheated prior to rolling. The temp. of the preform is constantly measured during rolling and the difference between the nominal and optimal temps is used to regulate the rolling speed during forming.
