Nucor to acquire Southland Tube

Charlotte, N.C.-based Nucor Corp. has agreed to acquire Southland Tube, an independent manufacturer of hollow structural section (HSS) steel tubing in Birmingham, Ala.

Southland employs about 280 people, shipping about 240,000 tons of HSS steel tubing annually.

Through the acquisitions of Independence Tube and Southland Tube, Nucor is building its market position in the HSS steel tubing market and providing an additional channel to market for Nucor's sheet steel mills.
