AK Steel's surcharges are based on reported prices for raw materials and energy used to manufacture the products, with the November 2007 purchase cost used to determine the January 2008 surcharges.

AK Steel produces flat rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steel products, as well as carbon and stainless tubular steel products, for automotive, appliance, construction and manufacturing markets.
