Heading 7326

Other articles of iron or steel

24 declarable lines

Heading 7326 covers other articles of iron or steel that are not covered by a more specific heading. It is split first by production method: forged or stamped but not further worked, articles of iron or steel wire, and other articles. The other article group in 7326.90 has product-specific lines for items such as ladders, fence posts, paint roller frames, and caskets.

  • Wire garment hangers
  • Sod staples and ground staples
  • Double loop wire ties
  • Ladders
  • Fence posts with corrugations or studs
  • Metal handles for brooms and mops
  • Burial caskets

How to choose the right subheading

  • Check whether the article is forged or stamped and not further worked; those lines are 7326.11 and 7326.19.
  • Check whether the article is made of iron or steel wire; wire articles go to 7326.20.
  • If the article is neither forged or stamped nor wire, classify in 7326.90 and then select the product-specific line when one fits.
  • Confirm that no more specific chapter 73 heading covers the item, such as 7318 for fasteners, 7320 for springs, or 7315 for chain.
  • For the 7326.90 residual group, use a specific product description before the other line 7326.90.86.88.
