Roll-Kraft has upgraded the “www.
roll-kraft.com/ask-the-doctor/
strip-width-calculation-for-tube-
and-pipe-mills” tube and pipe strip
width calculator that is available
on
”. It is now
possible to execute calculations di-
rectly from a web browser or mobile
device, without having to download
any files.
Often, questions arise about tube
and pipe sizing and the new strip
width calculator is a simple way to
get the information quickly. The
website features two calculator
functions. One calculates the width
of the strip that goes on the mill.
The other calculates square and rec-
tangular tube and pipe equivalents
for round tube. Each calculator pro-
vides useful estimates that will be
of benefit to tube and pipe manu-
facturers. Simply enter the various
criteria required for the calculation,
such as dimensions and type of ma-
terial, to obtain the information
needed.
Customer service is a priority for
Roll-Kraft. This feature is just one

Roll-Kraft, a leading provider of
tooling to the tube and pipe in-
dustry, has added a video to the
company website that illustrates
the

tube-and-pipe-split-rolls” features
and benefits of tube and pipe
split rolls. The video gives a de-
tailed explanation of how using
split and bolted rolls will bene-
fit companies that produce tube
and pipe. It also details the con-
siderable cost savings possible due
to the fact that split rolls can last
10-15 times longer than solid rolls.
Traditionally, “

solid steel rolls installed on a mill
to form tube and pipe. This con-
figuration, while quite productive
and completely acceptable, can be
