First support means for supporting the roll in contact with one of said opposite sides of said strand, second support means for supporting the roll in contact with the other of said opposite sides of said strand. Linkage means at the opposite ends of said rolls interconnect said first and second support means and maintain said rolls in substantially parallel alignment at the opposite sides of said strand. The linkage means each include a first linkage member pivotally connected at one of its ends to one of said support means, a second linkage member pivotally connected at one of its ends to the other of said support means and pivotally connected at its opposite end to said first linkage member and means interconnecting the linkage means at one end of said rolls with the linkage means at the other end of said rolls for applying a restraining force to said linkage means, said support means and said rolls for permitting restricted, limited movement of said rolls away from each other when force in excess of said restraining force is applied to said rolls by a continuously cast strand passing therebetween.
