Cooled strand guide roller mounted at more than one location

A strand guide roller for guiding a metal strand in a continuous casting machine, the strand guide roller comprising:

• at least one first and one second individual roller in an axial row, wherein the first individual roller is connected in a non-rotatable manner to the second individual roller to define the strand guide roller, the individual rollers each have a duct for internal cooling and together form a cooled strand guide roller;
• the strand guide roller having an outer region;
• at least three bearing blocks, wherein the outer region of the cooled strand guide roller and a region between two of the individual rollers are rotatably mounted at at least one of the bearing blocks;
• a manifold bar for supplying the strand guide roller with cooling water, the manifold bar comprising a plurality of brackets and at least one coolant pipe in between each two successive brackets for the fluidic connection of the brackets, wherein a first bracket of the two successive brackets has in each case at least one first connection for the internal cooling of the cooled strand guide roller and at least one second connection for cooling the bearing blocks, the first connection is fluidically connected to the ducts of the individual rollers and the second connection is fluidically connected via the brackets to the bearing blocks;
• and
• wherein one of the brackets comprises an intermediate plate which is aligned parallel with the direction of casting and has at least one of the first connections and at least one of the second connections.
