The price of PVC steel wire hose is affected by the following factors:
Material factors
PVC material quality
High-quality PVC resin has better physical properties, such as strength, toughness and weather resistance. Therefore, the hose produced by it is of higher quality and the price will be higher accordingly. In addition, PVC materials with high-performance additives can improve the performance and service life of the hose. Therefore, the price will also rise.
Wire quality
The material, diameter and strength of the wire have an impact on the price. Hoses made of high-quality stainless steel wire or high-strength galvanized steel wire have better corrosion resistance and pressure resistance. Therefore, the cost and price will also be higher. At the same time, the larger the diameter of the wire and the higher the braiding density, the better the strength and stability of the hose, and the price will increase accordingly.
Brand awareness
Well-known brands usually have stricter control and guarantee in terms of product quality, production process and after-sales service. Therefore, the price of their products will also be higher. Buying hoses from well-known brands often gives you a better user experience and quality assurance.
Market supply and demand relationship
Demand factors
Prices may rise during peak demand seasons or when there is a strong demand for PVC steel wire hoses in certain specific areas. For example, the demand for hoses in industries such as construction and agricultural irrigation increases significantly during specific seasons or peak project periods, which will drive up prices.
Supply factors
If there are many manufacturers of PVC steel wire hoses on the market and the supply is sufficient, the price may be suppressed to a certain extent and show a downward trend. On the contrary, if manufacturers reduce production or the supply of raw materials is insufficient, resulting in tight market supply, the price may rise.
Raw material price fluctuations
The production of PVC mainly depends on raw materials such as raw salt, coke, coal and crude oil. The fluctuations in the prices of these upstream raw materials will directly affect the cost of PVC materials, and then affect the price of PVC steel wire hoses. In addition, the price of steel wire will also be affected by factors such as the iron ore and steel market. When the price of steel wire rises, the price of PVC steel wire hose will also rise accordingly.
