The U.S. Steel plant in Alabama will soon have a premium thread line at its Fairfield Tubular Operations location.
The new line will mean 44 new, permanent jobs for the plant.
The capital investment of $75 million is part of U.S. Steel’s capital deployment strategy in partnership with Nippon Steel.
“U. S. Steel’s investment in the Fairfield Premium Thread Line is a bold step forward for American manufacturing, our workforce, and our communities,” said David B. Burritt, president and CEO of U. S. Steel. “This project exemplifies our commitment to growth, innovation, and delivering high-quality products made in the USA. At U. S. Steel, we are well on our way to being better and bigger...forged in America, and built to be the best!”
Forty of the new jobs will be represented by the United Steelworkers.
