Abstract
A roll for continuous casting comprises a cylindrical roll rotatably mounted on a fixed axle and said axle comprising a coolant inlet system and a coolant outlet system. A cooling chamber receives a flow of coolant. The coolant chamber is defined by the space between the interior of the cylindrical roll and the axle. At least one spiral is formed onto the axle that creates a helical flow path from the coolant inlet system to the coolant outlet system.
