As described in a film magazine review,[3] Wally Gay, a young furnace man’s helper in a steel mill, is eager to become a mill owner, and to that end tries to submit to the mill owner for whom he works a new plan for installing a battery of furnaces. He is spurred on by his love for Amy Creeth, the mill owner’s daughter. His enemy in his plan for the mill is the nephew of the acting superintendent of the mill, who also seeks to win the affection of the young woman. Many complications arise out of the plans for the new furnaces, including a spill of molten metal near Amy and a strike by the mill workers, but the young tender’s helper finally has his plan for the mill adopted and also wins the love of the young woman.
With no prints of Steel Preferred located in any film archives,[4] it is a lost film.
