In 2025 the market price for AA7075 alloy in coil form typically sits roughly between USD 2,000 and USD 4,200 per metric ton, with most traded offers clustering around USD 2,200–3,500/t depending on temper (T6/T651), gauge, cladding, and regional supply chains. Base aluminium benchmarks (LME/CME) set the platform price; 7075 carries a processing + alloy […]

In 2025 the market for 8011 aluminum foil is driven mainly by movements in primary aluminium (LME/Large-market) prices, regional energy and smelter policies, and local processing/transport costs — meaning buyers who source direct from Chinese factory suppliers with stock and flexible MOQ (like Luokaiwei) can often achieve the best landed cost and shortest lead times

In 2025, 3003 alloy aluminum foil is trading broadly between USD 1,900–3,200 per metric tonne at the mill/FOB level in China, while finished foil prices in consuming markets range higher — commonly USD ~3,000/MT in Asia (port averages) and USD 4,700–5,200/MT in North America and parts of Europe depending on thickness, temper and tariffs. The

ASTM A240 Type 410 stainless steel coil remains a cost-effective martensitic grade in 2025: it trades significantly below high-nickel grades (304/316), with China FOB ranges roughly USD 900–1,600/MT for commercial coils and Europe / North America delivered ranges typically USD 2,200–3,500/MT depending on grade variant, finish and local surcharges. Buyers who prioritize fast delivery, factory

Stainless steel cable (wire rope) used in architectural, marine, lifting and industrial work most commonly ranges from ~1.5 mm to 40 mm diameter in standard constructions (1×7, 7×7, 7×19, 6×19 etc.). Grade 304 is cost-effective for many indoor/low-chloride uses; 316 / 316L is the common choice where chlorides or harsh chemicals exist. In 2025 typical

Stainless-steel U and Z sheet piles (commonly 304, 316 or duplex grades) offer the best long-term lifecycle value despite a materially higher upfront cost versus carbon steel. Typical finished stainless U/Z piles in 2025 trade roughly in the range $2,000–$4,500 per metric tonne depending on grade, region and fabrication; Chinese factory-made stainless piles (FOB) are

For most industrial piping work in 2025, 316 stainless-steel flanges made to ASME B16.5 remain the standard choice for corrosion resistance and good mechanical performance at modest temperatures. Dimension coverage runs from NPS ½ through NPS 24 in common ANSI classes (150–2500 when applicable to size), and unit prices in 2025 vary dramatically by origin,

Aluminum U bars (U-channels) in 2025 are most commonly made from 6xxx-series alloys (especially 6063 and 6061) and are produced to ASTM/EN extrusion tolerances. Market pricing in 2025 varies strongly by region and order type: raw Chinese factory extrusion prices (FOB, bulk) typically sit in the ~USD 1.9–3.8 / kg band for standard profiles, while

455 stainless steel (commonly sold as Custom 455, UNS S45500) is a martensitic, precipitation-hardening stainless alloy engineered to combine very high yield strength after simple age-hardening with good corrosion resistance in atmospheric and fresh-water environments. It is supplied in clean vacuum-melted forms, machines and finishes well in the annealed state, and is widely used where

If you need formability, corrosion resistance, cost-effectiveness and excellent cold-workability for general-purpose sheet and tankwork, choose 3003. If you need structural strength, machinability, and heat-treatable high-strength parts (frames, fittings, extrusions), choose 6061 (especially T6/T651 tempers). 3003 is a non-heat-treatable Mn-alloy prized for forming and corrosion performance; 6061 is a precipitation-hardening Mg-Si alloy engineered for much
