Looking to the future, our company will make its main business more competitive while carrying out diversified, extensive, green and harmonious development modes, so as to be the most competitive A572 grade 60 high strength steel producer in the world as well as a worldwide first-class enterprise. With ten years cooperation with these big mills, now we are the agent of super stainless steel mills in China.
In the first quarter of 2020, the output of EU steel pipe industry decreased by 13.3% year-on-year, but it is considered to be flexible due to its close connection with the A572 grade 60 high strength steel construction industry. However, demand for large welded pipes is expected to remain weak in the oil and gas industry. In 2020, the steel consumption of steel pipe industry will account for 13% of EU A572 grade 60 high strength steel steel consumption market. Uestf predicts that in 2020, the output of steel pipe industry will continue the downward trend of 2019, with a year-on-year decrease of 19.4%, and a rebound of 9.8% in 2021.
45# steel is a common medium carbon quenched and tempered structural steel. The cold plasticity of 45# steel is general. Annealing and normalizing are slightly better than A572 grade 60 high strength steel quenching and tempering. 45# steel has higher strength and better machinability. After proper heat treatment, 45# steel can obtain certain toughness, plasticity and wear resistance. 45# steel is suitable for hydrogen welding and argon arc welding, not suitable for gas welding.
