Special Steel Sections

The unobtrusive concrete hall from mid 1940s in the suburbs of Wolverhampton conceals an unexpected jewel - a hand rolling mill from the 1930s.

Sounds confusing?

In 1982 brothers Michael and Patrick Legg (lately known as the Legg Brothers) bought the old Wisewood Rolling Mill in Loxley, Sheffield. After several years of hard work the production had to be expanded so the original technology from the 1930s was moved to its present location in Wolverhampton in 1993.

Since 2007 the Legg Brothers Ltd. were bought by All Steels Trading LTd. and are know as the Special Steel Sections Ltd., one of Europe´s leading producers of bespoke special steel profiles, sections and complex shapes
