Abstract

A supporting and guiding arc for a cast strand has roller-carrying arcuate longitudinal carriers arranged in a stationary framework, which carriers support the strand at opposite sides. At least the roller-carrying arcuate longitudinal carriers arranged at one side of the strand are braceable relative to the framework under elastic deformation for adjustment to various strand thicknesses. All of the longitudinal carriers arranged at one side of the strand are connected to transverse carriers which are movably guided on drawing anchors secured to the framework, and the transverse carriers are fixable relative to the drawing anchors.
