Abstract

A rolling mill includes three or more rolling rolls aligned along a circumferential direction and arranged so each rotary shaft is skewed with respect to a pass line of a material to be rolled, wherein the material to be rolled made of a pipe or bar material passes between the rolling rolls while being rotated to undergo diameter reducing rolling. At least one rolling roll selected from the three or more rolling rolls is smaller in roll diameter than at least one other rolling roll. When at least one rolling roll having a relatively maximum roll diameter defined as a maximum diameter rolling roll and at least one rolling roll smaller in roll diameter than the maximum is defined as a small diameter rolling roll, the small diameter rolling roll has a roll diameter equal to or less than 90% of the roll diameter of the maximum diameter rolling roll.
