1. Price Characteristics of Imported screws

• Brand and Quality: Imported screws usually come from well-known brands, such as Würth in Germany and Hard Lock in Japan. These brands are renowned for their high quality and superior performance, and thus their prices are relatively high.
• Average Import Price: According to market data, the average price of imported screws varies depending on the specification and material. For example, the average price of some imported screws is $3.39 per piece, and the price of imported screws made of some special materials (such as PEEK) may be even higher.
• Market Trends: The prices of imported screws are affected by fluctuations in international raw material prices and exchange rate changes. However, overall, due to their high quality and reliability, the prices are relatively stable.

1. Price Characteristics of Domestic Screws

• Cost Advantage: Domestic screws have an obvious cost advantage in production costs, especially in large-scale production. For example, the price of ordinary carbon steel screws produced in China may be as low as $0.10 per piece, which makes domestic screws more competitive in terms of price.
• Quality and Performance: The quality and performance of domestic screws are constantly improving. However, in high-end application fields, there is still a certain gap compared with imported screws. The materials and processes of some domestic screws still need to be improved.
• Market Supply: Domestic screws have an abundant supply in the domestic market. Especially in fields such as construction and general machinery manufacturing, the prices are relatively stable.

1. Price Comparison

• High-end Applications: In high-end application fields (such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing), due to their high performance and reliability, the prices of imported screws are usually higher than those of domestic screws. For example, the price of imported high-strength stainless steel screws may be 30% - 50% higher than that of similar domestic products.
• General Applications: In general application fields (such as construction and furniture), due to the cost advantage, the prices of domestic screws are usually lower than those of imported screws. For example, the price of ordinary carbon steel screws produced in China may only be one-third of that of imported screws.
• Special Materials: For some special materials (such as titanium alloy and PEEK), due to their advanced manufacturing processes and material advantages, the prices of imported screws are significantly higher than those of domestic screws.

1. Market Dynamics

• Growing Demand: With the upgrading of the domestic manufacturing industry, the demand for high-performance and high-quality screws has increased, and the market share of imported screws has risen to some extent.
• Domestic Substitution: In some mid-to-low-end markets, domestic screws are gradually replacing imported screws with their cost-effective advantages.
