7214.30.00.10/Lead-Free Cutting Steel Round Bar 12L14 Equivalent with Lead/Canada

Lead-Free Cutting Steel Round Bar 12L14 Equivalent with Lead from Canada

A hot-rolled round bar of nonalloy free-cutting steel containing 0.1% or more lead by weight to enhance machinability for automatic screw machines. Classified under HTS 7214.30.00.10 as other bars and rods of iron or nonalloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, specifically free-cutting types with lead addition. The lead content improves chip breaking and surface finish during high-speed machining.

Import Tips

• Certify exact lead content (≥0.1% by weight) via mill test reports to confirm classification in this lead-specific subheading

• Ensure documentation specifies 'free-cutting steel' and hot-rolled condition without further working like cold drawing

• Avoid misclassification as lead-free types under 7214.30.00.20; test for lead to prevent CBP reclassification and penalties
