TMT Rebar Grade Fe500 16mm
Thermo-Mechanically Treated (TMT) reinforcing bar Grade Fe500, 16mm diameter with surface ribs from hot-rolling, offering high yield strength for seismic zones. Classified in HTS 7214.20.00.00 as concrete reinforcing bars of nonalloy steel; TMT process is heat treatment during rolling, not 'further worked' surface treatment.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If TMT process adds alloy elements for strength
High-strength TMT bars often contain micro-alloying elements qualifying as alloy steel.
If surface finished beyond hot-rolling
Any polishing, coating, or cold-finishing constitutes 'further worked' per Chapter note, moving to 7215.
If concrete reinforcing but rectangular section
Round bars specifically; rectangular/concrete reinforcing goes to 7214.91.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide TMT process documentation proving no cold-finishing; heat treatment during rolling keeps 7214 classification
• Test certificates must show rib pattern from rolling, not machined post-rolling

Deformed Hot-Rolled Rebar Grade 60
Hot-rolled steel reinforcing bars with surface ribs and indentations produced during rolling, meeting ASTM A615 Grade 60 specifications with minimum yield strength of 60,000 psi. Classified under HTS 7214.20.00.00 as concrete reinforcing bars and rods of nonalloy steel, not further worked beyond hot-rolling, including deformations for concrete bonding.
Epoxy-Coated Rebar #8 CRC
Corrosion-resistant epoxy-coated #8 rebar (1" diameter) with deformed surface for concrete, meeting CRSI standards. However, epoxy coating constitutes 'further worked' per Chapter 72 note (coating with nonmetallic substances), so not classifiable here - example shows common misclassification risk.
Seismic Grade 80 Rebar #10
High-strength Grade 80 rebar #10 (1-1/4" diameter) with ASTM A706/A615 deformations for earthquake-resistant concrete structures. Remains HTS 7214.20.00.00 if nonalloy steel with rolling deformations, regardless of high yield strength.
Hot-Extruded Deformed Rebar 25mm
25mm diameter rebar produced by hot-extrusion with integral deformation pattern for concrete, nonalloy steel. HTS 7214.20.00.00 explicitly includes hot-extruded concrete reinforcing bars/rods with deformations.
Grade 75 Bamboo Rebar 18mm
"Bamboo" style rebar Grade 75, 18mm diameter with heavy cross-rib deformation pattern mimicking bamboo texture for maximum concrete bond. Nonalloy hot-rolled steel classified HTS 7214.20.00.00 as deformed concrete reinforcing per rolling deformations.
