Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If cold-formed into angles, shapes, or sections
Cold-formed profiles of nonalloy steel classify under 7216, not 7215.
If not coated with metal
Uncoated other bars/rods of forged/concrete nonalloy steel under 7214.
If made into angles, shapes, or sections
Semi-finished products like certain profiles move to 7301.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Galvanizing certificates must specify immersion method and coating weight (e.g
• g/m²)
• Separate from cold-formed profiles to avoid 7216 classification errors
