Satellite, the "North Mill" contained the blast furnaces and BOF)
The plant stretched for miles along the east bank of the Ohio River. ("The Jones & Laughlin Steel Works gobbled up mile after mile of shoreline, producing beams, billets, bars, cans, wire, sheets, rolled steel—nearly every imaginable finished product" [

Assorting floor J&L Steel Aliquippa Tin Mill 1915 . Look how many women working in 1915.
Carol DeVincent: It's where my mother worked. She had the tip of her nose cut off from sorting.
Robert Scott Davis: They’re inspecting sheets of tin.
[Sorting tin must be tedious work, and thus considered "women's work," because I've seen other photos of women sorting tin when we were not at war. In fact, some of the comments confirmed this observation.]
Scott Gracie: For a very long time, women in the steel industry were relegated to tin floppers in the tin mills, doing quick inspections and sorting. The exceptions to this were during the wars, specifically in WWII. When the war was over, the women were displaced by the returning GIs to steelmaking. I had two aunts, then in their very late teens/early 20s, that operated overhead cranes at Weirton Steel during the war. In the mid '70s after the EOE, women would return to all hourly positions in the mills. Karen Simpson: Scott Gracie ...yup. I was hired in 1975. Worked for coal Handling in the Byproducts in West Aliquippa. Ran coal on conveyor belts to the coke ovens. Than my last year or so I bid and worked in the Lab until the mills started closing. I was terminated in 1984. Sad. Had hoped of retiring from there. Chris Dawson: Yes, the US didn’t enter the war until 1917, but steelmakers and other companies were doing good business supplying materials to the Allies after the war broke out. But the women in the picture weren’t likely replacing men; tin mills long had women employees, who would be used as inspectors of the tinplate, because women were viewed as more likely to spot any imperfections in the shiny tin than men could. So that’s why “tin floppers” (so called because they would quickly inspect one side and “flop” it over to inspect the other side) were almost always women. |

Real Bubba: South mills, at 10 miles long Aliquippa works can’t fit in one picture.
Scott Gracie: Based on what I've read, LTV closed Aliquippa down in '84.......I don't know, if it was progressive (hot end first, then tinplate later ?). According to research, the hot end did close in '84.....the Tin Mill operated under USS and closed in 2000. Steel will be coming back to Aliquippa in the near future under 72 Steel. |

Tim Grau: Great pics. It was a massive plant. 7 miles long?
Cory M. Roma: Tim Grau Yes sir!! I think it employed 14,000 at its peak. It was J&L Steel’s flagship mill until the day it shut down, and its first fully integrated steel mill.

J&L Wire Mill
Russell Weidner: Bob Ciminel Aliquippa was the only location for J&L rod and wire products.
Pat McCon: Aliquippa. South Coke Works - see the beehive coke ovens [which is a very old technology] and the South Power House. As I recall, the buildings on the left are probably the rod mill - the wire mill was the next operation to the South. The #20 Hose House (South Mills Fire Station) was on the road between the Tin Mill and the Wire Mill. The South Mills Restaurant was also in that area, as well as the South Dispensary - but those were before my time.
On the right at the top of the photo is, I think, the south end of the Tin Mill.
Trivia: At Aliquippa we gave directions as ‘north, south, hill, and river’. Even the crane controls were labeled that way. In this photo the river is to the right. The photo was taken nearly directly above the Ambridge Bridge.
J&L Aliquippa Works South Mills - about 25% or so of the South Mills.
Frank Seidita: Pat McCon I was working for a guy in Kentucky he was a blast furnace man he always use the signals up river down river hillside and Riverside. I always believing in north south east and west, ask him where he got that from? He said the drawing. I didn’t believe him and he took me down to his trailer and showed me on the drawing he was right! |

Charging Machine over a coke battery J&L Steel Aliquippa PA 1980.
Ken Jamin: The car charged the ovens. What did the guy with the long pole do?
Scott Andrejchak: Ken Jamin the was a hook at the end of the stick to pull the lids off, so the Larry car could put coal into the battery. Those white manhole covers are the lids. And each battery takes a different type of coal, depending on the type of coke they making. Which is why if you look, the lids line up to where the crushed coal is going to come out.
Ken Jamin: Scott Andrejchak And who closed and sealed them behind the Larry car?
Scott Andrejchak: Ken Jamin the same guy that takes them off, as I recall. It was a summer job at Hazelwood plant. We had wooden shoes that went over the shoes/boots you wore. |

J&L Steel Aliquippa Works (later LTV Steel) years before it was razed, and the fake left arms my old man used in the mill.
He was a maintenance welder, and taught the USW Local 1211 apprenticeship for a few years. Lost his left arm, partial knee on the same side and suffered severe shrapnel damage as an Army sergeant in the initial invasion into Korea from Japan in 1950 to start the Korean War. Died in 1989 from work-related cancer at 59.
My uncle on my dad's side was killed on the job in the mill, in 1972.
J&L Aliquippa was roughly 7 miles long between Aliquippa and Monaca, PA along the Ohio River, roughly 15 minutes north of Pittsburgh. I still have some pipe made in J&L. Nothing made today is touching it...the best.

Number 5 blast Furnace coming down J&L Aliquippa.
Allan Beighley: A-5 Blast Furnace was the first furnace that I broke-in on in 1970 when I finished the Production Management Training Program. I was a Casthouse Blower Foreman in the department until the end of 1974 when I moved up to General Headquarters - Pittsburgh in the Purchasing Department. I fondly remember the old steam gun on A-5, tapping the "monkey", and helping change burned tuyeres during shutdowns. During my tenure in the furnace department, I blew on A-1, A-3, A-4, and A-5 furnaces, was a Linerunner, Pig Machine General Foreman, and general backup on special projects to Al Herbenak the department Engineer.
Howard Maher: You wouldn’t happen to know when the BOFs went away, would you? We watched them being built from across the river in Baden, with an oxygen pipeline coming over the Aliquippa hills supposedly from West Virginia…
Pat McCon: Howard Maher - #1 BOF was closed when #2 was built - late 60s. #2 was shut down around 1985, demolished soon after. Some time in the 70s the oxygen line ruptured - where it crossed under Raccoon Creek, I believe. Big boom. The valves were far apart - it took a long time for the line to drain so the fire could be extinguished. |

In 1953 a major expansion project to increase steel production at Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation’s Aliquippa Works was undertaken. A new 44-inch blooming mill and its drive were installed, replacing a steam-engine drive mill that set many production records during its time. The installation process was accomplished in the remarkable time of 7 days and 14 1/2 hours of down-time. The 44-inch Blooming Mill was driven by four 3000-hp, 70 to 140-rpm, 750-volt, double-armature motors, arranged in tandem twin drive. The main drive motors drew their power from a motor-generator set (pictured here) consisting of four 3000 kilowatt, 750-volt, d-c generators, a 15-foot 10-inch diameter, 220,000 pound steel plate flywheel (left foreground), and a 9000-hp, 6600-volt, 360-rpm induction motor. The 44-inch Blooming Mill was shut down in October 1984. |

Motor replacement at J&L Aliquippa Works in 1953.
Pat McCon: Donald R. Inman - Was this the Blooming Mill conversion from steam to electricity?
Rick Rowlands: Pat McCon Yes
Rick Rowlands: This is when the blooming mill engine (foreground) was replaced with electric motors and shows the motors in service before the remainder of the engine had been removed.
Alan Taylor: The motors look like the 2500 HP General Electric motors we had in the 4 stand at USS Stelco. In the back that looks like a motor generator set.
Richard Peoples: So it was told to me, the mill gearbox and mill housing was set out on the riverbank for scrap but then sold down the river to Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel and installed at Mingo Junction with electric motor. In 1980-82 I was the QC metallurgist for it in Mingo. It was a great-performing 44" high-lift mill.
Donald R. Inman: Yes it was. All the work was done in 7 days, from shutdown to start up. Even removing the steam engine put in 1909.
Sam Burkett: didn't they have a steam operated blooming mill?
Rick Rowlands: Sam Burkett Yes and the remaining part of the engine bed plate is in the foreground.
Sam Burkett: when i was there around 1979 installing the seamless tube mill, I could hear it running. |

Setting motor brushes, J&L Steel, 1953 [or was this done in Pittsburgh?]
[I think it is interesting how the "wires" are in fact rather wide bars.]
Fred Lannert: Our horizontal mill had two 7000hp motors. Each motor had 394 brushes. Commutator was 7’ in diameter. It was a good job in the summer because there were only a few places that had air conditioning, and that was one of them.
Ronald Hollingsworth: Yes I remember doing brushes on motors like these, the bottom two rows are always the hardest laying upside down on your back.
Rose BZ: Always helps when guy in a suit stands over you whistling.
John Sims: Yes! I did weekly brush maintenance on our mill motors and M-G sets. It wasn't too bad as long as I stayed on top of (and under) them.

J&L Steel The descriptions says "Tapping Machine," but those look more like milling machines to me. Any expert opinions would be appreciated.
Pat McCon: Look on the floor - couplings. I suspect it’s the Coupling Shop at the Aliquippa Seamless, where the couplings were made for the Tube Mills. If it’s a J&L photo it has to be Aliquippa because that’s the only place we had tube mills before they bought YS&T.
