Summary of Findings: In 1997, steel mill product manufacturers had shipments of $68.1 billion, which increased 3 percent from $66.3 billion in 1996. Steel ingot and semifinished shapes increased 3 percent to $4.8 billion in 1997 from $4.6 billion in 1996. Hot- rolled sheet and strip, including tin mill products increased 1 percent to $22.1 billion in 1997 from $21.9 billion in 1996. Hot-rolled bars and shapes, plates structural shapes, and piling increased by 3 percent to $12.9 billion in 1997 from $12.5 billion in 1996. Steel wire increased 6 percent to $2.4 billion in 1997 from $2.2 billion in 1996. Other wire products decreased to $2.0 billion in 1997 from $2.0 billion in 1996, a 3-percent decrease. Steel pipe and tube incurred a 12-percent increase to $9.9 billion in 1997 from $8.8 billion in 1996. Cold-rolled steel sheet and strip decreased to $11.2 billion in 1997 from $11.4 billion in 1996, a 1-percent decrease. Cold-finished steel bars and bar shapes increased 2 percent to $2.3 billion in 1997 from $2.3 billion in 1996. Other steel mill products increased 15 percent. Table 1.
