Abstract A separating-and-lubricating agent in solid form for warm metal shaping, especially hot-sheet or profile rolling. The softening point of the agent is between 20° and 250° C., the melting point is between 30° and 300° C. and the shore-D-hardness at 200° C. is between 20 and 80. The agent contains at least one thermoplastic polymer and/or copolymer and a lubricant for synthetic substances.
