A powder lubricant composition according to the present invention includes 65 parts by mass to 95 parts by mass of sodium borate, and 5 parts by mass to 35 parts by mass of cryolite. A method for manufacturing a seamless steel pipe according to the present invention includes adhering the above-described powder lubricant composition to a pipe inner surface of a work piece which is piercing rolled to have a tubular shape, and elongation rolling on the work piece after the adhering of the powder lubricant composition.

The present invention provide a two-component anti-seizure agent for hot metal working process comprising the first aqueous solution and the second aqueous solution, wherein the first aqueous solution contains 10&#x2dc;30 mass % of sodium silicate equivalent to anhydride to 100 mass % of total mass of the first aqueous solution, and the second aqueous solution contains at least one kind selected from a group consisting of: an organic acid and water-soluble amine salts thereof, an inorganic acid and water-soluble amine salts thereof, a water-soluble amine, a water-soluble alcohol, and a water-soluble metal chloride. When the two-component anti-seizure agent is applied onto disk-roll type guide shoes, it can be provided and maintained on the circumferential surface of the disk-roll type guide shoes without washed away by rolls' cooling water. Thereby, the anti-seizure agent does not adhere to rolls and the rolls and a pipe material do not cause slippage each other. Thus, it is capable to carry out piercing-rolling of the pipe material.

By employing a Cr-plated mandrel bar for producing hot seamless tubes according to the present invention wherein centerline average roughness Ra in axial and circumferential directions as well as maximum depth Rv in axial and circumferential directions is specified and further maximum height Rp in axial and circumferential is specified, surface defects such as seizure unlikely generate in an elongation-rolling process by a mandrel mill so that the service life can be dramatically extended, thereby the remarkable reduction of tool cost can be achieved. Moreover, it contributes greatly to improve the inner surface quality of hot seamless tubes to be rolled by a mandrel mill rolling process. Also, the manufacturing method by the present invention makes it possible to efficiently manufacture Cr-plated mandrel bar for producing hot seamless tubes.
