Structural Hot-Rolled Steel Coil 2.7mm Grade 50
Grade 50 structural hot-rolled coil (yield 50 ksi), 2.7 mm thick, 1,200 mm wide, nonalloy steel, hot-rolled only. Classifies under HTS 7208.39.00.90 provided it doesn't meet high-strength steel yield criteria from US Note 72(a).
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If yield ≥275 MPa (high-strength steel)
US Note 72(a) specifically defines high-strength steel with dedicated subheading.
If ball-bearing steel quality
Specific alloy composition for bearings (Note 72(h)) uses separate headings.
If universal mill plate form
Plate vs coil form changes classification even for same thickness/strength.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Calculate exact yield point (MPa) vs 275 MPa threshold for high-strength exclusion
• Provide tensile test certificates from accredited labs
• Segregate Grade 50 from higher strength grades in inventory
