Price forecast of A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel

For the estimation in April and the second quarter, the estimation on March 16 is still valid, but the decrease in April is 10% higher than the neutral prediction. It is a conservative estimation based on 10% for the high probability event. In the second quarter, the output of overseas pig iron will be reduced by 11.67 million tons, affecting the demand for A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel iron ore of about 1.84 million tons; in the first half of the year, the output will be reduced by 18.899 million tons, affecting the demand for iron ore of 32.13 million tons.

Considering the large workload of allocation and transportion for our steel materials, we have built special shipping department, and make it independent form transportation department. The transportation department is in charge of transporting steel materials from our mill and warehouse to the port, and our shipping department is in charge of the shipping matters. So that our whole shipping efficiency is improved, and shorten time for customers to receive goods.

SA516Gr60 material, SA516Gr70, SA516Gr60N, SA516Gr70N steel plate in thickness ≤1.5in (40mm) is usually supplied in rolled state. The plate can also be ordered according to normalizing or stress relief, or normalizing plus stress relief. SA516Gr60 steel plate when thickness> 1.5in. (40mm) should be normalized. Unless otherwise specified by the customer, A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel, SA516Gr60 steel plate (thickness ≤40mm) should be normalized when there is a notch toughness requirement.

In 2018, one of our India customers visit Zhengzhou office building and work shop to discuss carbon steel Q235B grind plate technical request. They have strict surface and thickness tolerance, and they also request UT and MT for testing for Q235B grind plate. As a result, they purchase 179 tons as trial order for first cooperation. After using the gind plate, the India customer has good comment on our A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel quality. Till now, we keep exporting around 100 tons per month as regularly.

Hot rolled plates are known for their superior mechanical properties over commodity grades of merchant bar. The hot rolled A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel plates products are made to specific chemistry and mechanical properties ranges, allowing them to be used in engineered applications. Resulting shafts, axles, and gears can be used in the automotive A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel industry and agriculture equipment. A36 mild steel has good strength, formability, and excellent welding properties. We also can supply welding, fabricating, and bending service.

"We can supply carbon steel plate, A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel, hot rolled plate and structural steel sheet with high quality and various size. Thickness from 5mm to 300mmWidth: from 1,500mm to 2,500mmLength: from 6,000mm to 12,000mmTechnical conditions: Ultrasonic tested as per SA 578 or any other as per requirementMTC acc to EN 10204 / 3.2"

After adding a small amount of niobium, vanadium and titanium to A572 Grade 55 HSLA Steel etc. steel, it is combined with the controlled rolling process to control the precipitation behavior of microalloying elements to achieve the purpose of improving the comprehensive properties of the steel, whether it is strength, toughness, ductile-brittle transition temperature, or Steel's process formability, welding performance, corrosion resistance and crack resistance have been significantly improved, while reducing production costs. Such steel products are widely used in oil and gas pipelines, vehicles, building structures, oil production platforms, pressure vessels, ship shells and many other fields.
