Stay updated with the latest UHP Graphite Electrode (600MM) prices, historical data, and tailored regional analysis
In China, the average UHP Graphite Electrode (600MM) price was ~USD 2,429/MT (FOB) in June. India recorded an average price of ~USD 2,517/MT (CIF) during June. During Q2 2026, UHP Graphite Electrode (600MM) prices followed a rise-then-fall pattern as firm production costs supported the market through April and early May before weaker steel demand pressured values toward June. Chinese producers initially pushed offers higher as needle coke and petroleum coke remained firm, while freight disruptions also supported replacement costs. The market weakened from late May as petroleum coke availability improved and steel mills resisted further increases. China imported around 1.244 million MT of uncalcined petroleum coke in April, helping ease raw-material tightness. At the same time, UHP Graphite Electrode (600MM) was ~USD 2,584/MT (average, CIF) in June. Softer crude-steel production and weak property-related steel consumption reduced electrode replacement demand. Indian and U.S. landed values remained comparatively higher because of freight, import and distribution costs.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, prices are expected to remain broadly stable to slightly soft as comfortable feedstock availability and cautious steel demand offset underlying production costs.

UHP Graphite Electrode (600MM) prices followed a stable-to-firm trend in Q1’26 across Asia, Europe, and North America. Asia saw firmer sentiment in March as petroleum coke and needle-coke-linked inputs strengthened, while Indian steel demand offered better support than China. Europe remained cost-supported but demand-limited, as weak steel output restricted full pass-through of higher energy and logistics costs. North America showed firmer conditions due to higher oil-based raw material, power, and freight costs, supported by relatively steadier electric furnace steel demand. Meanwhile, the Iran war and Strait of Hormuz closure raised shipment risk sharply, with only nine vessels navigating the route on March 2 compared with 135 vessels/day during February, adding pressure to oil-linked carbon inputs and electrode freight costs.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, near term, prices may remain firm if coke, power, and freight costs stay elevated. Stronger steel mill buying would be needed for a sharper increase.
