A strip treatment line for leveling metal strip comprising:
- a dressing mill stand having a pair of dressing rolls between which a workpiece metal strip passes for reduction to a dressed thickness;
- and
- a first roll directly downstream of said dressing mill stand and looped by said workpiece metal strip immediately upon traversing said dressing mill stand and applying tension to said workpiece metal strip, and a second roll spaced downstream of said first roll and looped by said workpiece metal strip immediately upon passing around said first roll and applying tension to said workpiece metal strip, whereby said first and second rolls form a tension-producing stretching roll pair forming a strip prestretching zone between said dressing mill stand and said first roll and a strip afterstretching zone between said first and second rolls.
