A wire roll stand with roll rings mounted in a cantilevered manner onto roll shafts, wherein the roll rings can be axially clamped through spacer rings against an end of the respective roll shaft. The roll shafts are adjustable by eccentric bushings mounted in a housing and the eccentric bushings as well as the roll shafts are sealed relative to walls of the housings. The housing wall through which the roll shafts extend is equipped with openings which take into consideration the adjusting range of the roll shafts, wherein the openings are fixedly lined with sealing rings having a U-shaped profile. The spacer rings have a U-shaped profile and are composed of at least two parts with separating surfaces thereof extending within the profile yokes, wherein the sides of the spacer rings rest on the sides of the sealing rings within the adjusting range. The housing wall through which the roll shafts extend has blind-end bores for supplying pressurized water, wherein the blind-end bores are provided with outlet openings directed toward the sides of the sealing rings facing the roll.
A wire roll stand comprising roll rings mounted in a cantilevered manner onto roll shafts, the roll shafts having ends, spacer rings for clamping the roll rings axially against an end of each roll shaft, eccentric bushings mounted in a housing for adjusting the roll shafts, wherein the eccentric bushings as well as the roll shafts are sealed relative to walls of the housing, wherein the roll shafts extend through openings of the housing walls, the openings being configured to take into consideration an adjusting range of the roll shafts, sealing rings having U-shaped profiles fixedly lining the openings, wherein the spacer rings have U-shaped profiles, each U-shaped profile being divided into at least two parts at dividing surfaces located in section yokes of the spacer ring, wherein sides of each U-shaped spacer ring contact sides of the sealing rings within the adjusting range, the housing wall further comprising blind-end bores for supplying pressurized water, wherein the blind-end bores have outlet openings directed toward the side of the sealing ring facing the rolls.
