Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7223.00Lower: 10% vs 35%

If tool steel per note (e)

Specific alloy compositions meeting tool steel criteria shift to tool steel primary forms.

7218Same rate: 35%

If hot-rolled billets/blooms

Post-casting hot-rolling into worked billet shapes moves out of primary ingot category.

300 Series Stainless Steel Ingots

Large cast blocks of austenitic stainless steel alloys like 304 or 316, produced by melting and pouring into molds. Classified under HTS 7218.10.00.00 as primary forms of stainless steel prior to hot-rolling into slabs or billets. These ingots serve as the initial feedstock for further stainless steel processing.

304 Stainless Steel Billets

Cylindrical or square primary cast forms of grade 304 stainless steel, used as input for extrusion or forging. HTS 7218.10.00.00 covers these as 'other primary forms' of stainless steel before hot-rolling into usable shapes. Not further worked per chapter definition (no polishing or coating).

316L Stainless Steel Primary Ingots

Low-carbon variant (316L) stainless steel ingots cast for corrosion-resistant applications in marine/chemical industries. Falls under HTS 7218.10.00.00 as stainless steel primary forms, unmachined and without surface treatments like phosphatizing.

430 Ferritic Stainless Steel Billets

Primary billets of 430-grade ferritic stainless steel with 16-18% chromium, no nickel, used for automotive trim. HTS 7218.10.00.00 for stainless in primary forms before rolling into sheets or bars.

Duplex 2205 Stainless Steel Primary Forms

Duplex stainless (2205 grade) ingots or billets combining austenitic/ferritic phases for oil & gas piping. HTS 7218.10.00.00 applies to these unwrought stainless primary products without further working.

321 Stainless Steel Ingots

Titanium-stabilized 321 stainless steel ingots for high-temperature exhaust systems. Primary cast forms under HTS 7218.10.00.00, not clad or enameled per 'further worked' exclusion.
