Ratner Steel has purchased a new 5/8th-inch 76-inch-wide stretcher leveler from Red Bud Industries for its Osceola, Ark., service center, to be delivered in fourth-quarter 2018.
“We are very excited with this new opportunity,” said Mark Ratner, owner and CEO. “Our belief is that this region of the country has significant potential for a flat rolled company such as Ratner Steel. The equipment we purchased will be the preeminent cut-to-length line in the region. It will allow us to provide customers with a quality piece of steel at a competitive price.”
Ratner Steel currently has three stretch levelers in its Indiana and Minnesota locations. The company processes 400,000 tons of carbon steel annually. It services a diverse customer base, including service centers, fabricators and OEMs.
