Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the sheet width is 600 mm or more
Flat-rolled high-speed steel of a width of 600 mm or more falls under heading 7225, not 7226.
If the product is in bar or rod form, not flat-rolled
Bars and rods of high-speed steel are classified under heading 7228, which covers other bars and rods of alloy steel.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the steel's composition meets the high-speed steel definition (e.g
• molybdenum, tungsten, vanadium content) to avoid reclassification
• Provide a mill certificate or lab analysis with your customs documentation to support the tariff classification
• Verify the width is under 600 mm; if it exceeds, a different tariff item may apply
