Flat-rolled products of other alloy steel, of a width of less than 600 mm
26 declarable lines
Heading 7226 covers flat-rolled products of alloy steel other than stainless steel, in coils or cut lengths, with a width under 600 mm. It is split first by steel type: silicon electrical steel, high-speed steel, and all other alloy steel. The remaining subheadings turn on how the strip was worked (hot-rolled, cold-rolled, or further worked such as plated or coated), then on width thresholds of 300 mm and thickness thresholds of 0.25 mm and 4.75 mm.
Products in this heading
- Grain-oriented silicon electrical steel strip 300 mm wide or more
- High-speed steel strip under 600 mm wide
- Chipper knife steel strip, hot-rolled
- Ball-bearing steel strip, cold-rolled, 300 mm or wider
- Zinc-electroplated other alloy steel strip
- Cold-rolled high-nickel alloy steel strip under 0.25 mm thick
- Hot-rolled tool steel strip under 300 mm wide
How to choose the right subheading
- Identify the steel type: silicon electrical steel, high-speed steel, or other alloy steel such as tool steel, ball-bearing steel, or high-nickel alloy steel.
- Check the width: 300 mm or more versus less than 300 mm drives separate lines in several subheadings.
- Determine the working: not further worked than hot-rolled, not further worked than cold-rolled, or further worked such as plated or coated.
- For hot-rolled other steel, check thickness of 4.75 mm or more versus less than 4.75 mm.
- For cold-rolled strip under 300 mm wide, check thickness not exceeding 0.25 mm versus exceeding 0.25 mm.
Often confused with
- Heading 7220Flat-rolled stainless steel strip under 600 mm wide
Stainless steel is a separate series of headings from other alloy steel.
- Heading 7225Flat-rolled other alloy steel 600 mm wide or more
Width of 600 mm or more leaves heading 7226.
- Heading 7227Hot-rolled bars and rods in coils of other alloy steel
Bars and rods in irregularly wound coils are not flat-rolled products.
- Heading 7212Flat-rolled nonalloy steel strip under 600 mm wide, plated or coated
Nonalloy steel strip is classified in heading 7212, not in the alloy steel headings.
- Heading 7229Wire of other alloy steel
Wire is drawn and classified in its own heading, not as flat-rolled strip.
Frequently asked questions
What is the HTS code for grain-oriented silicon electrical steel strip 300 mm wide or more?
It is classified under 7226.11.10.00. The general (MFN) rate for that line is Free.
What is the duty on cold-rolled other alloy steel strip under 300 mm wide and over 0.25 mm thick?
That merchandise falls under 7226.92.80.50 when it is not high-nickel alloy steel. The general (MFN) rate is Free.
How do I classify hot-rolled other alloy steel strip that is 4.75 mm thick or more?
Use 7226.91.50.00 for hot-rolled strip of other alloy steel, not further worked, at a thickness of 4.75 mm or more, excluding tool steel and high-speed steel lines. The general (MFN) rate is Free.
