Abstract: A 20-high rolling mill configured for rolling a metal strip, which includes a housing system comprising two parts capable of moving relative to one another, respectively forming an upper housing part, configured to transmit a clamping force to the four backup roller assemblies, of the upper group, and an upper housing part, configured to transmit a clamping force to the four backup roller assemblies of the lower group, and a door cooperating, in a closed position, with a peripheral frame of a fixed frame structure of the housing system surrounding the maintenance window, said door closing, in a sealed manner, said maintenance window. A system of axial stops for the second intermediate rolls accompanies the movements of the upper and lower housing parts.
