Abstract: A replaceable roll for mounting on a tapered threaded shaft of a roller mill includes a generally cylindrical roll member of wear-resistant cast material having an axial bore defined by a central bore wall portion raised with respect to a first bore end wall portion and recessed with respect to an opposite second bore end wall portion. The first bore end wall portion is of a preferably noncircular, polygonal configuration and receives a removable complementary annular end insert which abuts an annular shoulder formed at the interface of the central bore wall portion and first bore end wall portion. The bore of the end insert and the second bore end wall portion are axially tapered to correspond to the taper of the shaft onto which the roll is to be mounted. The taper of the second bore end wall portion forms a progressive continuation of the taper of the bore of the end insert for receiving the tapered threaded shaft.
