U.S. Steel to invest 1 billion to build steelmaking and continuous casting lines

 On August 8, U.S. Steel announced that it would invest $1 billion to build new steelmaking and continuous casting lines at its two steel plants in Mon Valley, Pennsylvania.

The company plans to build a new continuous casting line at Edgar Thomson and a new combined heat and power facility at Clairton.

The company said that the application of the new continuous casting production line will significantly improve its product competitiveness in the home appliance, construction and industrial markets, and factory workers will also receive corresponding training on the operation of the new equipment. At the same time, the investment will boost the economy of southwestern Pennsylvania and provide job security for thousands of steelworkers.

"This investment by U.S. Steel opens a new chapter in Pennsylvania's manufacturing industry," David Taylor, president and CEO of the Pennsylvania Manufacturers Association, said in a news conference at the Clayton plant. The construction and application of the production line will strengthen Southwest Pennsylvania as a global center for advanced manufacturing."

What are the surface treatments of EN 10294-1 E355+N seamless pipes

  EN 10294-1 Grade E355+N mild steel seamless pipes are available in thicknesses ranging from 3mm to 100mm, outer diameters from 8mm to 250mm and inner diameters from 5mm to 700+mm. The shape of the pipe can be produced into a round pipe, and it can be produced into a square pipe or other special-shaped pipe by extrusion or welding. The surface finish can also be processed by cold drawing, centerless grinding, hot rolling, smooth turning and peeling. Chemical Properties Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorous Sulphur Molybdenum Nickel Chromium Copper Others max 0.22 max 0.50 max 1.50 0.045 0.05 max 0.08 max 0.40 max 0.30 max 0.30 V max 0.10 Mechanical Properties Yield Strength Tensile Strength Elongation A5 min MPa min ksi min MPa min MPa min ksi min Percentage     490 – – 20 E355+N pipe material also belongs to a category of CS pipes, and its hardness is not as good as that of high carbon steel, but its surface hardness can be adjusted by carburizing. The E355 grade is equi...

What are the applications of steel pipes in the automobile manufacturing industry?

图片
Cars are the daily necessary means of transportation for the public. The manufacture of cars is inseparable from steel pipe products. Let us take a look at the parts of the car that are composed of steel pipes: CCB pipe fittings CCB is mainly used to support man-machine interface control equipment and decorative parts, and at the same time form a safety system with other safety structures. The structure is simple and mainly includes a pipe beam, a side end support, a pipe column fixing support assembly, a lower support leg and an auxiliary support. Seat post It acts as a support structure within the car seat cover, allowing the seat to retain its structural shape. Trunk hinge The trunk hinge is the connecting mechanism of the trunk door of the car. Due to the opening angle of the trunk door, the hinge needs to bear the weight of the trunk door, so the hinge also needs to play a supporting role. Door anti-collision tube When the side door is hit, the sturdy high-strength anti-collision ...
