Recently, the price of 304 stainless steel has been rising rapidly. It is common to adjust the price two or three times a day. With the price rising, the supply of stainless steel plate is in short supply. But many customers in the purchase of 304 stainless steel plate found a phenomenon, that is, the same specification of 304 stainless steel plate, different businesses in the market price difference of 500 to 1000 yuan per ton! So why is the difference so big? Mingda stainless steel, a 304 stainless steel plate manufacturer, analyzes the reasons as follows:

First, there are nearly ten thousand businesses selling 304 stainless steel plate in the market. The powerful businesses supply a large amount of 304 stainless steel plate and purchase more than a month. For example, if you purchase the same 304 stainless steel plate, the price given by the manufacturer is definitely different. The purchase price is low, so the sales price will also be relatively low.

Second: with the increasing demand of 304 stainless steel plate, our domestic stainless steel plate manufacturers have sprung up, and many unknown small manufacturers have begun to produce and wholesale. The quality of stainless steel plate produced by famous manufacturers such as TISCO, POSCO, Baoxin and Lianzhong is strictly in line with national standards. Of course, the price of products from large factories is certainly higher than that of small factories. Third: the price of 304 stainless steel plate mainly depends on the nickel content. The real nickel content of 304 stainless steel plate should be between 8 and 10. In order to obtain higher profits, some businesses take low nickel products as the national standard products of large regular factories to make up for the profits. Even more, many bold and unscrupulous businessmen even took 201 products as 304 products, of which the profit per ton was as high as several thousand yuan.
