A mechanism for automatically centering sub-guide rollers and adjusting the clearance between the sub-guide rollers thereby to adjust the clamping condition of the material to be rolled, for use in the material guiding apparatus of a rolling mill for rolling a steel blank into wires, bars and so forth, the material guiding apparatus being of a type having a pair of roller holders 2, 3 each of which carrying corresponding one of a pair of main guide rollers 4, 5 and a pair of sub-guide rollers 41, 51. Each of the sub-guide rollers is rotatably carried by corresponding one of a pair of eccentric shafts pins 26 unitary with each of a pair of support shafts 25 supported by a corresponding roller holder. A right hand screw gear 27 and a left hand screw gear 28 are attached to respective ones of the support shafts 25. A manually operable right hand screw worm 29 and a right hand screw worm 30 which is also manually operable are made to engage with the gears 27, 28, respectively.
