  • Patent number: 8308622
    Abstract: A centrifugally cast composite roll comprising an outer layer having a composition comprising by mass 2.5-9% of C, 0.1-3.5% of Si, 0.1-3.5% of Mn, and 11-40% of V, the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities; an intermediate layer made of a high-speed steel alloy, which is formed inside the outer layer; and an inner layer made of cast iron or steel, which is formed inside the intermediate layer.

  • Patent number: 8156651
    Abstract: A method for producing an outer layer for a roll having a structure having MC carbide dispersed at an area ratio of 20-60%, comprising the steps of (1) centrifugally casting a melt having a composition comprising, by mass, 2.2-6.0% of C, 0.1-3.5% of Si, 0.1-3.5% of Mn, and 8-22% of V, the balance being Fe and inevitable impurity elements, to produce a cylindrical body comprising an inner layer having concentration MC carbide, an MC-carbide-poor outer layer, and a concentration gradient layer between the inner layer and the outer layer, in which the area ratio of MC carbide changes, and (2) cutting the cylindrical body to a depth at which the area ratio of MC carbide is 20% or more.
