AISI 304 Stainless Steel Square Billet from Canada
A semi-finished square billet made from AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel with a cross-sectional area under 232 cm², typically used for hot rolling into bars or wire rods. It falls under HTS 7218.99.0015 as a primary form of stainless steel with square cross-section, not further worked beyond basic casting and rolling. These billets are essential for downstream manufacturing of corrosion-resistant components.

Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming stainless steel composition and square cross-section dimensions; ensure cross-sectional area calculation is accurate to avoid reclassification; declare as semi-finished, not bars if not further rolled
