DETROIT, ‌June ​10 (Reuters) - ​The United Auto Workers has reached a deal with axle supplier ‌Dauch Corp after a 10-day strike against ⁠the company at its Three Rivers, Michigan, ‌plant, union President Shawn ‌Fain said on Wednesday.

• Dauch, formerly known as American Axle, supplies axles to ​General Motors' full-size and midsize trucks from the plant.

• Members of UAW ⁠Local 2093 will soon vote on the new agreement ​with the company that includes a top wage rate of $30 per hour ​by 2030, a more ‌than 36% increase in four years, said Josh Jager, bargaining chairman ⁠for Local 2093.

• The strike will continue until the contract is ratified, the UAW ⁠said.

• Workers at the Dauch plant in 2008 ​agreed to accept lower wages. Since then, the top wage has increased by $4 to $22 per hour, ‌Jager said.

• A Dauch spokesperson said in a statement: "We appreciate the ‌efforts of both the UAW and ⁠Dauch labor negotiations ‌teams to find ​common ground."
