Lubrication in Cold Rolling and Drawing of Pipe

Аннотация

The use of lubricant in the cold rolling and drawing of pipe is considered in theoretical and practical terms. Its use proves positive. The transfer of lubricant to the deformation region is analyzed, as well as the influence of the lubricant on the surface microrelief of the pipe. Experimental data and industrial practice are analyzed. Recommendations are made regarding lubricant selection and means of ensuring production efficiency and meeting the requirements on the surface quality of the pipe.
