Seamless pipes: According to the survey (34 sample seamless pipe factories), the ex-factory prices of seamless pipe factories across the country have been partially lowered this week. As of this Friday, the quotations of some seamless pipe factories have fallen by 50-300 yuan/ton. Due to the relatively slow adjustment of the early-stage prices of some tube plants, the ex-factory prices of some mainstream seamless tube plants have fallen by 50-300 yuan/ton this week, and the ex-factory prices of most tube plants have remained stable. After the price adjustment of the tube factory this week, the shipment of the tube factory improved slightly. It is expected that with the slight increase in the price of billet and the fact that most of the pipe factories are now in place to compensate for the decline, the price of seamless pipe factories may remain stable next week.
