Steele customers come face to face with the Beast
Our new 120 AEX extruder and pug sealer really is a beast. We tell people to see it in person, to appreciate how massive it is and how much engineering went into the design and construction.
Updating an ancient technology with 21st-century engineering to make better parts faster
Modern Casting takes a look at the way Steele is updating this ancient foundry process, by using 3D printing to develop and create patterns for sand casting.
Notes from the 2019 Clemson Brick Forum
The Clemson Brick Forum is the brick industry’s largest gathering of manufacturers, distributors and suppliers, and a can’t miss event for us here at Steele. We showed up with some significant innovations for plants and machine operators, each designed to improve production and lighten the load on your maintenance department. If you didn’t make it to the show, here’s what we shared.
Celebrating 130 years with the launch of our new 120 AEX extruder
We’re celebrating 130 years in business with the introduction of our most powerful stiff extrusion system to date — the 120 AEX. The 120 is a beast, designed to shape 120 tons per hour of heavy clay or iron & steel mill byproducts, with all the performance, ease of operation and durability you expect from Steele.
Steele featured in Our State magazine
As our 130th anniversary approaches, we’re proud to be listed in the Our State magazine article “One of the 100 Family Businesses that Built North Carolina.”
Steve Durham is our new Heavy Clay Manager

A few faces are changing, but Steele customer service stays consistent
A business doesn’t make it to 130 years without a few personnel changes along the way and Steele is no exception. Please join us in congratulating each of these professionals on their next moves!
NLMK begins hot tests at new metallurgical briquette plant, using Steele stiff extrusion
NLMK, a leading global steelmaker, has begun hot tests at its new metallurgical briquette plant in Lipetsk. The production technology, which features Steele stiff extrusion, was developed by the late Ivan Kuranov, a legendary Russian steelmaker, professor and former chief blast furnace operator at NLMK Lipetsk. Kuranov supervised the design of the plant, which will produce 700,000 metric tons of extruded briquettes annually.
