I am confident that we remain well-positioned for the long term, and I thank our customers for their patience and continued trust in TimkenSteel.”TimkenSteel manufactures high-performance carbon and alloy steel products from recycled scrap metal in Canton in Ohio serving demanding applications in mobile, energy and a variety of industrial end markets.
