Tools(4)

All tools are read-only and never change any data. Results include emetals.tw links for full details or quotes.

Steel grade specs and properties emetals_search_steel_specs read-only
About 1,300 grades: standard, typical uses, chemical composition limits and mechanical properties by thickness (yield, tensile, elongation). Data comes from published mill catalogues, each value with its source.
Try: What are the yield strength and chemistry of SS400?
Taiwan steel stock emetals_search_inventory read-only
Search listed stock on the platform: product, grade, size, quantity, price, city, and whether it is EPD-certified green steel. Price 0 means quote on request. Seller identity is not disclosed; use the returned link to request a quote.
Try: Is there SS400 angle steel in stock in Taichung?
Taiwan metal suppliers emetals_search_suppliers read-only
Search Taiwanese metal material and processing suppliers by name, material or city (companies on eMetals AI™ first). Returns company name, district, categories and a profile link — no phone numbers or emails.
Try: Which stainless steel suppliers are in Changhua County?
CBAM emissions and cost estimate emetals_estimate_cbam read-only
Estimate embedded emissions for steel exported to the EU from weight and production route (or an EPD carbon intensity). Certificate cost is calculated only when you give an EU ETS price. Rough estimate only.
Try: Roughly what CBAM cost for 100 t of EAF steel at €70/t CO₂?

Data and limits

  • Up to 60 calls per minute per IP; beyond that the server returns an error — retry shortly.
  • Spec values come from published mill catalogues and are for reference only; rely on the mill test certificate for purchasing.
  • Stock results do not reveal the seller, and the supplier directory has no phone numbers, emails or full addresses; contact them through the returned emetals.tw link.
  • CBAM figures are rough estimates and do not account for free-allocation phase-out or carbon prices paid in the country of origin.
  • Free to query and cite with a link to the source; please do not bulk-download or resell the data.

Privacy

No sign-in is needed and we never receive your conversation with the AI — only the query parameters your AI client sends. To prevent abuse and measure usage we log the tool name, query parameters, IP address, client user-agent and time; logs are deleted after 180 days and are never sold or shared.
