HV500 High-Strength Steel Cold-Rolled Coil
HV500 high-strength steel grade coil, cold-rolled, 2.8 mm thickness and 1000 mm width, with a yield strength of 500 MPa, for armored vehicle panels. It is a flat-rolled product of non-alloy steel, in coils, not further worked than cold-rolled, and not clad, plated or coated. The thickness exceeds 1 mm but is less than 3 mm, so it is classified under tariff item 7209.16.00.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the HV500 grade is non-alloy and meets the high-strength definition (yield ≥ 275 MPa)
• Have the mill test certificate ready to show thickness, width, and yield strength to the CBSA
• If the steel is used for armor and contains alloying elements, it may fall under heading 7225
