As the market price of seamless pipes keeps hitting new lows and market confidence has dropped to a trough, some favorable factors have also emerged. First of all, in the new round of price adjustments, mainstream steel mills such as Baosteel and Wuhan Iron & Steel have strong willingness to hold up prices. Terminal demand is weak, market transactions are poor, steel exports are blocked, and cost support is weakened. While steel production is operating at a high level, North Steel's southward move is accelerated. In the later period, inventory pressure gradually increased. Under the premise that steel mills have no substantial production cuts and monetary policy is in a dilemma, the steel market may be difficult to change before the Spring Festival holiday. At the same time, the positive factors in the market have limited impact on the price of seamless pipes. Steel mills are priced up and credit is released in advance, which is more psychological support, which leads to a weakening of the bearish atmosphere in the futures market and a low-level shock.
Precision steel pipes and seamless steel pipes are two common steel pipe products on the market. There are some similarities, but there are also differences.
1. The main feature of seamless steel pipe is that it has no welding seam and can withstand greater pressure. The product can be very rough cast or cold drawn parts.
2. Precision steel pipe is a product that has appeared in recent years, mainly because the inner hole and outer wall dimensions have strict tolerances and roughness.
What is precision steel tube:
Precision steel tube is a kind of seamless steel tube material with high precision inside and outside bright after cold rolling treatment. Since the inner and outer walls of precision steel pipes have no oxide layer, high pressure and no leakage, high precision, high finish, cold bending without deformation, flaring, flattening without cracks, etc., it can be done, so it is mainly used to produce pneumatic or hydraulic components. Such as cylinders or oil cylinders, can be seamless pipes.
Features
1. The outer diameter is smaller;
2. High precision and small batch production;
3. The cold-drawn product has high precision and good surface quality;
4. The cross section of the steel pipe is more complicated;
5. Steel pipe has better performance and denser metal. It is often used in the manufacture of mechanical structures, hydraulic parts, auto parts, etc.
