These rollers are con-nected together by means of spur-wheels, so that the surface velocities of the rollers acting immediatelyupon the metal passing between shall be equal, although the diameters of such rollers may be unequalor equal, as most convenient. Immediately in front of the first pair of these rollers B 1> are placed the 780 TUBE-MAKING MACHINERY. pair of rollers C C1, the centres of the shafts of these rollers being in a direction at or near right anglesto those of the rollers B B, and therefore
