Thermo-Mechanical Rolling of Steel Products

Thermo-mechanical rolling is a steel rolling process that carefully monitors both temperature and reduction per pass, with most reductions occurring near the Ar3 temperature to allow rolling in the two-phase range. Unlike normalizing rolling, the properties produced by thermo-mechanical rolling cannot be reproduced through subsequent heat treatments. Products made through this process are designated with the code TM, and may undergo accelerated cooling or tempering following rolling if approved by GL.

Steel Plates, Strips, Sections and Bars

Thermo-mechanical rolling is a rolling process


incorporating careful monitoring of both the rolling
temperature and also the reduction per pass. The greater
proportion of reductions per pass is generally carried
out close to the upper transformation temperature Ar3
where rolling in the two-phase temperature range may
be incorporated. Unlike normalising rolling, the properties
produced by thermo-mechanical rolling cannot
be reproduced by subsequent normalising or other heat
treatments. Products supplied in this condition are
designated bythe code TM.
Accelerated cooling following TM rolling may take
place if this process has been approved by GL. The
same applies to tempering treatments following TM
rolling.
