In recent years, the export tax rebate rate for hardware tools has been reduced, and the rapid appreciation of hardware tools has further pushed down the profit rate of hardware tools. Second, the production of hardware tools is mainly affected by the price of raw materials such as steel. The instability in the steel market has also led to a significant increase in the sales of hardware tools. Hardware tools are mostly meager products, and the market competition is fierce, and it is impossible to raise the price uniformly.
