STEEL PRICES RISE:
The carbon steel market is poised to grow by 699.35 MT during 2020-2024 progressing at a CAGR of almost 8% during the forecast period." (Source: Business Wire)
This is what we are seeing all across the industry; day after day new emails from vendor's telling us that their prices are rising, every order we make for materials needs to be revised because the last price is no longer valid, and for good reason. The cost of steel materials has been steadily increasing throughout 2020, and it unfortunately has not slowed into 2021. The reduced capacities of companies in this industry due to Covid-19 health and safety regulations continues to have an impact. As a result, we are forced to increase our list pricing for 2021 and add a steel surcharge to off-set the rising costs that is projected to continue this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have on our close and prospective customers. We we will do what we can to keep our prices low when the opportunities are found, but right now we are left with little options.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Product overview

Important Notice
These are industrial output shafts used in the manufacture of industrial augers. We have been selling these as repair pieces so this dimension has never mattered. We have discovered that some people are using these to build their own augers or extensions. If you do so, then you are expected to understand the difference between pipe and tubing. Tubing is measured as OD and pipe is measured as ID. If you try to use standard pipe, you will have two issues.
1. The pipe will be a lot weaker and will likely fail. Skid Steer Solutions can not claim responsibility should this issue arise.
2. The pipe will have a different outside dimension and will likely not fit properly.
The quality of the welds that you perform are strictly at your own risk. We recommend that you work with someone who can weld this product professionally to minimize any damage and downtime. Again, we cannot be held responsible for issues pertaining how this product is used or fabricated into a finished item.
