Hot-Rolled U-Channel 75x50x5 mm from Mexico
A hot-rolled U-section made from nonalloy steel, measuring 75 mm in height and 50 mm in width with 5 mm thickness, used in light structural framing. It falls under HTS 7216.10.0050 as a U-section not further worked than hot-rolled, with height less than 80 mm, and classified as 'other' within this subheading. Nonalloy steel composition ensures placement in heading 7216.

Import Tips
• Verify exact dimensions and confirm height under 80 mm with mill certificates to avoid reclassification to higher height sections
• Provide chemical composition analysis proving nonalloy steel (under 10% alloying elements) as per Chapter 72 notes
• Inspect for any further working like polishing or coating, which would shift to 7216.91 and alter duty rates
