Published: Jun 3, 2026 14:48
[SMM Brass Billet News Flash] According to SMM, downstream end-use demand follow-through has been insufficient recently. New orders received by brass billet enterprises pulled back notably, with factory production generally relying on earlier backlog orders for support, and pressure on the spot sales side became increasingly evident.
