Cold-Rolled Blackplate Steel Coil for Can Manufacturing from Canada
Thin cold-rolled blackplate steel coil, under 0.361 mm thick and 600 mm or wider, used primarily for fabricating metal food and beverage cans. Classified under HTS 7209.18.25 as flat-rolled nonalloy steel, cold-reduced in coils, not further worked beyond cold-rolling, and specifically as blackplate due to its matte finish and thickness. Meets chapter definitions excluding alloy steels, cladding, plating, or coatings.

Import Tips
• Verify exact thickness and width measurements with mill certificates to confirm <0.361 mm and ≥600 mm; ensure no post-cold-rolling treatments like coating qualify as 'further worked'
• Declare as nonalloy steel with chemical composition certification to avoid alloy reclassification
• Watch for rust/discoloration—no duty allowance per chapter notes
