7213.99.00/AISI 1018 Hot-Rolled Steel Coil/China

AISI 1018 Hot-Rolled Steel Coil from China

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.

Import Tips

• 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
