AISI 1018 Hot-Rolled Steel Coil

Hot-rolled bars and rods of low-carbon nonalloy steel (AISI 1018) wound irregularly into coils, typically used for general fabrication and machining. This product falls under HTS 7213.99.00 as it consists of hot-rolled nonalloy steel in irregularly wound coils, not fitting specific subheadings for concrete reinforcing or other specialized types. The irregular coiling distinguishes it from straight lengths classified elsewhere.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7213.91.30Same rate: 35%

If containing indentations, ribs, or deformations for concrete reinforcement

Qualifies as concrete reinforcing bars/rods per U.S. Note (c), shifting to specific reinforcing subheading with potentially different duties.

7214.99.00Same rate: 35%

If further worked via cold-rolling or surface treatments like coating

Chapter 72 defines 'further worked' (e.g., polishing, coating) moving it from hot-rolled Chapter 72.13 to cold-formed/other bars in 72.14.

7228.30.80Same rate: 35%

If alloy steel with elements exceeding nonalloy thresholds (e.g., >2% manganese)

Products with specified alloying elements fall under Chapter 72 alloy steel headings like 7228, not nonalloy steel in 7213.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify chemical composition certification to confirm nonalloy status (under 10% alloying elements) avoiding misclassification into Chapter 72 alloy steel headings

Ensure documentation specifies 'irregularly wound coils' and hot-rolled process to distinguish from cold-rolled (HTS 72.14) or straight bars (HTS 72.13 straight)

Watch for rust/discoloration; no duty allowance per Chapter 72 notes—inspect coils pre-entry and claim only if post-entry damage
