Weathering Steel Coated Panel from China
Weathering steel coated panel is a galvanized COR-TEN equivalent with a protective organic coating, exceeding 600 mm in width, used for bridges and buildings. The base steel is non-alloy, despite the weathering characteristics, and the organic coating over the zinc layer makes it 'further worked'. It is classified under tariff item 7210.90.00 as other coated flat-rolled non-alloy steel.

Import Tips
• Confirm the base steel is non-alloy, as true weathering steel (alloy) would be classified in heading 72.25
• Provide mill certificates showing the chemical composition to avoid misclassification
• Check if the organic coating meets Canadian building code requirements for structural applications
