August 1985 US thick-walled seamless steel pipe and other pipe imports amounted to 2.74 million tons, compared with the final value of 2.98 million tons in July fell 8%, another record low monthly imports this year, which is mainly hot galvanized sheet and pipeline Pipe and other varieties of imports than the impact of a substantial decline in the promotion.

According to the species, in August the United States pipeline pipe and plate imports fell the most, down 38%, respectively, down to 128,000 tons and 123,000 tons; followed by hot galvanized sheet, imports fell by 20% , Down to 253,000 tons in July the United States from China imported hot galvanized sheet 110,000 tons, and in August has plummeted to 32,000 tons, which is mainly affected by the US imports of corrosion-resistant steel products from China anti-dumping investigation The imports of semi-finished thick-walled seamless steel tubes and other pipe fell 13% to 51.4 million tons; cold rolled coil and steel imports fell more than 10% qoq, of which the CRC fell 12% to 173,000 tons, Steel ring than the reduction of 11% to 153,000 tons. Wire rods, hot rolled coil, oil well pipes and hot rolled bar imports remained unchanged, with wire rods up 48% to 133,000 tonnes and HRC imports up 29% qoq to 347,000 tonnes.

From the main source of imports, in August the United States from Japan, Brazil and Canada and other countries imported thick-walled seamless steel pipe and other pipe chain growth, which Japan is relatively large growth, growth of 35% to 220,000 tons; 25% to 470,000 tons, is the largest US thick-walled seamless steel pipe and other pipe imports of the country, of which hot rolled coil imports increased significantly from the 23,000 tons in July rose sharply to 77,000 tons; An increase of 5% to 461,000 tons, ranked second. August the United States from Turkey and China imported thick-walled seamless steel pipe and other pipe chain fell the most, more than 40%, of which imports from China thick-walled seamless steel pipe and other pipe 14.2 million tons, year on year and the chain fell sharply, The largest varieties are still cold rolled coil, galvanized sheet and wire, but by the "double reverse" investigation, China's CRC and galvanized sheet exports to the United States has been significantly reduced.
