Competition in iron products grows with steel and tin plate expansion
The American Steel and Wire Company plans large furnace additions to its plant to supply pig iron and steel for its wire and nails output, signaling intense market rivalry. Sharon Steel, led by Frederick Behl, and John Stevenson, along with Union Steel backed by Mellon Brothers and H. C. Frick, are building large open Hearth and similar plants to cut costs and win demand. Tin plate firms expand as well, with two new $5 million capital ventures claiming advanced processes. Exports by the Steel and Wire combination reach nearly 198 million pounds of wire and 77 million pounds of nails in ten months, while tin plate exports remain limited. The industry anticipates higher pig iron demand but a potential surplus if finished product demand shrinks, delaying price normalization.
