The competition of common bearing steel (non-anneal) made in East China is fierce. And the declination is visible. The price declination of bearing steel in other areas (non-anneal) ranges from RMB 100-200 per ton.
Bearing steel is mainly used for rolling bearing and rings. With the rapid development of machinery manufacturing, especially automobile, aeronautics and atomic industry, bearing is more extensively used. The bearing designing aims at light, thin-walled and miniature products. The manufacturers try to develop a kind of bearing without noise, vibration and trouble and with high reliability. The performance should be improved. The special bearings are needed, which is charcterized with high temperature enduring, high speed, heavy load capacity, anti-corrosion and anti-radiation. The bearing steel with low cost but well performance will be developed.
The domestic market of bearing steel is pessimistic. The competition focuses on the low-price product. And the supply exceeds the demand slightly. Great differences of bearing steel exist between China and other countries, and the supply does not meet the demand.
Concerning stock, more distributors cease to get a supply to guard against overstocking. In purchase strategy, according to the actual sales, end users get a little supply or require long term favorable policies. So there is not much stock.
