Abstract: The invention relates to a reversing roll stand (20), in particular a Steckel reversing roll stand (20), with at least one upper backing roll and one lower backing roll (2, 4) and one respective upper and one respective lower working roll (1 and 3); and with on the input side and on the output side of the stand respective upper supports (8) juxtaposed with the upper working roll (1) and connected to an upper-roll frame via a first actuator (6). In a deviating position from the upper support (8) a respective hinge-mounted upper scraper (11) for the upper working roll (1) is pivotally movable against the upper working roll (1) by a respective second actuator (12) carried on each of the upper supports (8). The upper supports (8) are each displaceable in respective lower and upper vertical guides (9, 10) such that the respective first actuator (6) can draw it out of the lower vertical guide (9) and it can be pivoted by a third actuator (7) outward from the upper working roll (1).
