Dark Horse Metals is built by a team that’s done the work — on rigs, in fab shops, inside steel mills, and out on job sites.

We’ve worked every link in the supply chain, and that’s why our customers trust us to move fast, cut it right, and back up every load we send.

We’re not here to sell — we’re here to supply. And that makes all the difference.
