Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the rod is hot-rolled
Hot-rolled stainless steel rods are classified separately.
If the rod is hot-drawn
Hot-drawn rods are not cold-finished and fall under another item.
If the rod is further worked, such as drilled or machined
Further working beyond cold-forming changes classification.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the hexagonal cross-section meets the definition of bars and rods in Chapter 72 notes
• Keep documentation showing the cold-drawing process and 304 grade composition
• Ensure no further working such as threading or bending has been applied
