Stand housing comprising contact surfaces for sliding rails

Abstract

The present application relates to a stand housing (10) for a stand (1) for rolling metal rods, wires or pipes along a rolling axis (19), which comprises at least four contact surfaces which are arranged on an outside (12) of the stand housing (10) and which, viewed along the rolling axis (19), are in parallel therewith. Of the contact surfaces, two form non-adjacent, mutually parallel contact surfaces, and the two others form adjacent contact surfaces. In this case, the adjacent contact surfaces are at an angle of 120° to one another, and each thereof is at an angle of 120° to one of the parallel contact surfaces. The two parallel contact surfaces and/or the adjacent contact surfaces are designed to receive sliding rails (40.2, 40.3, 40.4, 40.5) for inserting the stand housing (10) into a stand base.
