The operations of the former Wheeling – Pittsburgh Steel Corporation, were purchased by Russian steelmaker Severstal AG from Esmark in August 2008, then by RG Steel in 2010.

One of the most versatile plants in the United States, Wheeling is both a fully integrated as well an electric furnace plant, giving it unlimited flexibility in scheduling cost-efficient production based on input costs. Its annualized steel production capability is 2.4 million tons. The steelmaking facilities are located at Steubenville Ohio (HERE), directly across the Ohio River from Mountain State Carbon, of which RG Steel owns 50 percent, to supply its blast furnace coking needs.

Cold rolling is performed at Yorkville, Ohio, and orders can then be galvanized on the two coating lines at its neighboring Martins Ferry, Ohio, facility. Consuming industries for Wheeling products include tubing, pipe, container, appliance, automotive parts, construction and agricultural. Some of Wheeling’s output is sent to the RG Steel wholly owned subsidiary Wheeling Corrugating Company.
