Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If concrete reinforcing with ribs/deformations
Bars with rolling deformations for concrete reinforcement classify under specific reinforcing bar provisions
If cold-finished but lead content below 0.1%
Free-cutting steel without minimum lead content falls in other cold-finished categories
If imported as finished machined articles
Machined components from free-cutting steel classify by principal use, not material form

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify exact lead percentage via spectrometry certificates; confirm no heat treatment or plating occurred post-cold-forming; separate shipments if mixed with lead-free grades to avoid reclassification
