ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing the thickness of a slab of metal under conditions which tend to cause alligator defects to occur. The method comprises the steps of directing a relatively thick slab of metal several times through a rolling mill or mills to incrementally reduce the thickness of the slab until the thickness approaches a value that tends to produce a longitudinal and lateral fracture in one or both ends of the slab. The thickness of the slab is further reduced by passing the same several times again through a rolling mill or mills, with each of the passes of the slab taking a decreasing amount of reduction in thickness until a predetermined thickness value is reached. The next step involves passing the slab again through a rolling mill to further reduce the thickness thereof, the amount of reduction in this step and pass being substantially greater than that of the last pass immediately preceding this step.
