The United States Will Impose High Double Anti-tariffs On Steel Truck Hub Made In China

Image
On Wednesday, the International Trade Commission (ITC) found that steel truck hubs imported from China had caused substantial damage to domestic manufacturers and would impose high tariffs on these imports for five years. The U.S. Department of Commerce has previously ruled that these imported Chinese hubs are suspected of dumping and enjoy unfair subsidies. The decision came after the U.S. Department of Commerce ruled in March that it would impose 321% anti-dumping duty and 457% anti-subsidy duty on all Chinese steel hub manufacturers. The ruling was directed at 22.5-Inch and 24.5-inch steel hubs made in China, mainly for medium and large trucks and other commercial vehicles. In 2017, imports of such hub products in the United States totalled $388 million.

Main Factors Affecting Stainless Steel Corrosion

Image
As a  Metallic Clad Plate Supplier , let's talk about the main factors of stainless steel corrosion. There are three main factors affecting the corrosion of stainless steel: 1. The content of alloying elements. Generally speaking, the content of chromium in 10.5% steel is not easy to rust. The higher the content of chrome nickel, the better the corrosion resistance. For example, Stainless Steel Sheet Grade 304 has a nickel content of 8-10% and a chromium content of 18-20%. Such stainless steel will not rust under normal conditions.  2. The smelting process of the production enterprise will also affect the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. The large stainless steel plant with good smelting technology, advanced equipment and advanced technology can guarantee the control of alloy elements, the removal of impurities and the control of the cooling temperature of the slab. Therefore, the product quality is stable and reliable, the internal quality is good, and it is not ...

AK Steel Plans To Close The Ashland Plant

Image
AK Steel recently announced that it would close its Ashland plant in Kentucky by the end of this year and focus on producing innovative and value-added differentiated products. It is understood that most production lines (including blast furnaces) in Ashland Plant have been in a state of shutdown since the end of 2015, and only hot-dip galvanizing production lines remain in normal production. AK Steel said that the closure of the plant's blast furnaces and steelmaking equipment was mainly aimed at reducing production costs. Transferring hot-dip galvanized products from Ashland to other branches would not affect the supply of customers, but would also effectively improve the productivity utilization and production efficiency of other branches, thereby further reducing the production costs of hot-dip galvanized products and enhancing the market competitiveness of the products. AK Steel pointed out that the cost of closing the Ashland plant was about $80 million, which could save...
