Hot-Rolled AISI 1045 Round Steel Bar
A hot-rolled round bar of nonalloy steel containing 0.45% carbon by weight, with a diameter of 50 mm, used for manufacturing shafts and axles. It falls under HTS 7214.99.00.31 as other bars and rods of iron or nonalloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, with 0.25-0.6% carbon and diameter less than 76 mm.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If cold-formed or finished
Cold-drawn or cold-finished bars move to Chapter 72 heading 7213, as they exceed 'not further worked than hot-rolled' limitation.
If alloy steel composition
Bars with intentional alloying elements (e.g., >0.3% Cr) classify under alloy steel headings in 7228, not nonalloy steel.
If carbon content outside 0.25-0.6%
Bars with <0.25% or >=0.6% carbon fall into adjacent carbon content subheadings within the same 7214.99 structure.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify exact carbon content via mill test certificate to confirm 0.25-0.6% range and nonalloy status (no intentional alloying elements)
• Ensure no 'further worked' treatments like polishing or coating per Chapter 72 notes; plain hot-rolled surface only
• Measure diameter precisely; products >=76 mm shift to other subheadings, affecting duty rates
