FAQ
Sales Department
- How can we ask for an estimate?
- We can offer estimates more smoothly if we have as much information as possible, such as the steel grade, shape, dimensions, length and required mechanical properties. However, even if such information is not yet decided, we can make proposals based on consultation contents. For more information, please contact one of our salespeople.
- What happens if we are far away?
- We can serve customers located far away.
Since we have strong connections with transportation companies in each region, we can deliver products to customers in the Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu regions. Please feel free to contact us for consultation.
- Tell us about the reference period from order to delivery.
- We basically need 3 months to deliver products after receiving an order.
*It takes about 2 months to place an order with a steel manufacturer and receive the materials, and about 1 month to produce products in our process.
However, since we handle items with various steel grades and dimensions, the lead time may be greatly shortened if there are common usable materials. Please contact one of our salespeople.
- Can you propose cost reductions?
- Of course. We can make proposals from various aspects ranging from the mechanical properties of existing items to the characteristics of parts.
If you inform us of the desired unit price for an estimate, we will do our very best to meet it.
- Can you make prototypes?
- We can make prototypes according to customer needs.
However, making a prototype is based on mass-produced products being ordered in the future. If only prototype production is requested, we are not always able to make prototypes.
- How much is the minimum order quantity?
- We basically require 2 tons of products as the minimum order quantity.
The unit of materials delivered from steel manufacturers is two tons.
However, since we handle items of various steel grades and dimensions, we can accept orders less than 2 tons if there are common usable materials. Please contact one of our salespeople.
- What manufacturers can we work with?
- We work with almost all steelmakers in Japan.
The main manufacturers we work with are as follows:
(Kobe Steel, Ltd., Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation, JFE Steel Corporation, Daido Steel Co., Ltd., GODO STEEL, Ltd. Sanyo Special Steel Co., Ltd. and Nakayama Steel Works, Ltd.)
We can also procure overseas materials in some cases. Please consult with us if you have any special requests.
