What U.S.Alloys, Inc does
U.S. Alloys, Inc. is a privately-held, Houston, Texas-based steel bar distributor founded in 1976 that supplies carbon, alloy, and stainless steel round bar products to industrial customers worldwide. The company's core offering covers twelve-plus ASTM/ASME specification grades (A105, A350 LF2, A675 Grade 70, A696 Grade C, A182 F22/B22, F11/B11, F91, F92, F9, F5, 347/347H, and 321/321H) with outside diameters ranging from 7/8" to 26-1/2", backed by full traceability via Certified Mill Test Reports and ISO 9001/PED certifications.
The business operates on a quote-based B2B direct sales model with a team that includes executive, inside, and outside sales representatives. Operations are concentrated at three Houston sites: a main office at 6301 Long Drive, a customer pickup location at 6320 Winfree Drive, and a mill delivery receiving area at 6301 Eppes Entry #2. The company holds approximately $7M in on-hand steel inventory, processes material with nine saws, and moves product with up to 10-ton crane capacity. A secondary e-commerce channel (johngaltsteel.com) sells surplus and remnant steel to SMB and individual buyers.
Revenue is generated almost exclusively through hardware sales of distributed steel bar products; pricing is opaque and quote-driven rather than publicly listed. The customer base spans industrial manufacturers and oil and gas/petrochemical companies requiring specification-compliant materials, with no publicly disclosed named anchor customers or revenue figures. No external funding, acquisitions, or ownership changes are recorded in available materials, and the company is led by President John White and Executive V.P. Laura Havens.
