High-Strength Annealed Cold-Rolled Steel Coil 0.4mm from Germany
Flat-rolled high-strength steel coil, cold-rolled to 0.4mm thickness, width over 600mm, annealed for improved formability. Classified under HTS 7209.18.15.30 as nonalloy high-strength steel (yield point 355 MPa+ for 3mm+, but applies per trade usage), not further worked beyond cold-rolling and annealing. Used in automotive panels and structural components requiring ductility.

Import Tips
• Certify minimum yield strength at entry to qualify as high-strength steel per US Note 72(a)
• Provide mill test certificates confirming thickness <0.5mm, cold-rolled, annealed but not further worked (no coating/polishing)
• Watch for reclassification if any cladding, plating, or chemical treatments applied post-annealing
