LUBRICANT SYSTEM FOR SHEET AND SECTION ROLLING MILLS

A lubricant system for sheet and section rolling mills is disclosed, containing a solid lubricant, an adhesive component and/or a thickening agent, and a carrier medium, such as water. The lubricant system is sprayed as a suspension onto the working cylinder in the roll of a rolling mill, at least some of the water evaporating, while a firmly adhering, waterproof, lubricating and separating film forms on the working cylinders.
