About heading 7215

Other bars and rods of iron or nonalloy steel

Heading 7215 covers bars and rods of iron or nonalloy steel that are not hot-rolled, forged, extruded or otherwise covered by heading 7214, mainly cold-formed or cold-finished material and bars that have been further worked such as plated or coated. The heading splits first by whether the steel is free-cutting, then by whether the bar is only cold-formed, and finally by carbon content and cross-section size for cold-formed bars. The remaining subheadings cover plated or coated bars and other further-worked bars.
