Abstract
In the rolling of seamless tubes using a mandrel which is inserted in a hollow bloom as it is advanced through a rolling mill, the cooling of the mandrel after the tube rolling stage is effected, for example by passing the mandrel through a cooling bath, as the mandrel is returned to a ready position upstream of the mill along a return path which is at one side of the rolling axis, so that while this mandrel is being cooled a further rolling operation can be carried out using another mandrel, the mandrels being moved in a closed cycle of successive rolling and cooling stages.
