The Charlotte, N.C-based steelmaker kept its published price flat this week after moving it up by $10/st the week prior.
The HR coil base price for Nucor’s joint-venture subsidiary California Steel Industries (CSI) was also unchanged w/w at $810/st.
Lead times of 3-5 weeks will continue to be offered, but Nucor noted that customers should contact their district sales manager for availability. Published extras will apply to all spot transactions.
