Russian steel producer Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works (MMK) has announced that it produced over 526,000 mt at its hot rolling mill 2000 in January this year - an all-time record monthly output since the mill opened in 1994. The previous monthly record of over 520,000 mt was set in October 2014.

MMK's mill 2000 produces a full range of steel grades. Sheet width varies from 760 mm to 1,830 mm. The mill 2000 produces the broadest range of products of any MMK plant and includes around 1,000 items. The mill produces steel for various industries including pipes, construction, and machinery manufacturing. Shipbuilding, structural and transformer steel is also rolled, and the mill produces rolled products that are used in automotive sheet production.

In 2014, the hot rolling mill 2000 set its own all-time annual production record of nearly 6 million mt.
