Steel Dynamics will operate an approximately $1.9 billion steel mill in Sinton, expected to produce an estimated 3 million tons per year of flat roll steel using electric arc furnace technology.

Our first line will have capabilities of .500" x 84" @ 80,000 psi, with thickness ranging from .050" - .500". The slitter will be able to handle 105,000 lbs max coil weights and run up to 400 fpm. With these characteristics JM Steel will have the largest, most capable slitter in the United States.”
“The plant and the slitter will be operational by June 30th, 2021,” officials said. “Plans in years three and four include lighter gauge slitter capabilities and additional value added services like laser cutting and press braking capabilities.
