Steel is what we know, and steel is what we do. So we wanted to see how much everyone else knows about steel. We've put together a short quiz to see just how much people know about steel. Take a couple minutes and find out yourself.
It's been a busy week of news in the steel industry, and we at Capital Steel thought we would take it upon ourselves to share some of the bigger stories in the news this week.

Local steel and wire distributor Capital Steel & Wire has announced they’ve purchased a sixth production saw called the Nishijimax. This addition will give Capital Steel the ability to cut from .500" to 6" on production cold saws. Delivery for the new saw will be available by the end of the month.
Capital Steel and Wire is going to be at the National Industrial Fastener show in Las Vegas from 11/16-11/18. Our booth is 922.

Rolling is a fabricating process in which metal is passed through a pair of rolls. Rolling has 2 main classifications. Flat rolling, in which the product is typically a sheet, or profile rolling, in which the product is typically a rod or bar. Rolling is also classified according to the recrystallization temperature of the metal.
