History

When arms speak, Muses are silent. This is how the early period of Russian metallurgy can be described. Since their foundation, Ural iron works focused on providing the army and the navy with sufficient amount of modern weapons – the first canons and mortars were produced from cast iron in December 1701 at the Kamensky Works.
