The main raw material of ABS DH32 hull steel material, hot rolling coil is billet. After heating the billet, the strip made from the coarse and fine rolling mill is cooled to a certain temperature by specific cooling, and then the cooled steel strip is made into rolled steel strip by coiler. But generally, according to the buyer's demand, the manufacturer can further process the cooled steel strip into steel plate or flat coil and other products.
A131 EH36 steel is high strength marine grade hull structural steel. Its yield strength is no less than 355Mpa, tensile strength is 490-620 Mpa, and elongation is 19% min. ABS DH32 hull steel material, EH36 steel strength is close to S355 steel. However, EH36 steel is shipbuilding steel, while S355 steel is carbon structural steel, and can not be certified by classification society. That is to say, S355 steel is not allowed to be used for ship building when there is certificate requirement. A131 EH36 steel is widely used to build ships working in low temperature water.
In 2019, the output of pig iron in the world was 1.265 billion tons, with China accounting for 64%; the overseas output accounted for 36% (460 million tons), ranking 86.982 million tons of EU 28 countries, 74.907 million tons of Japan, 74.099 million tons of India, 73.264 million tons of CIS, and ABS DH32 hull steel material 47.521 million tons of South Korea.
In terms of inventory, the recent arrival of new ABS DH32 hull steel material resources is relatively small. Due to the high ordering cost, the weakening of merchants' purchasing enthusiasm, and the rapid production of steel mills, resulting in the shortage of some ABS DH32 hull steel material specifications. On the whole, the market has a strong wait-and-see mood. The ex factory prices of steel mills are strong and some resources are in short supply. It is expected that ABS DH32 hull steel material prices will continue the high consolidation operation tomorrow.
