High-Strength Annealed Cold-Rolled Steel Coil for Automotive Chassis from Canada

This is a flat-rolled high-strength steel coil of iron or nonalloy steel, cold-rolled to a thickness between 1-3 mm and width over 600 mm, annealed for improved formability. It meets the high-strength steel definition (thickness 1-3 mm with minimum yield point of 275 MPa) and is not further worked beyond cold-rolling and annealing, classifying it under HTS 7209.16.0045. Primarily used in automotive structural components requiring strength and ductility.

Import Tips

Certify minimum yield strength of 275 MPa at entry with mill test reports to qualify as high-strength steel per US Chapter 72 notes

Ensure no cladding, plating, or coatings beyond annealing; document cold-rolling process to avoid reclassification as further worked

Avoid rust/discoloration claims as no duty reduction allowed under Chapter 72 notes; inspect coils pre-entry
