Cold-Finished 316 Stainless Steel Round Bar 12mm from Germany

A cold-finished round bar made from 316 stainless steel alloy containing approximately 10-14% nickel by weight, with a circular cross-section of 12 mm diameter, less than 18 mm. Classified under HTS 7222.20.0043 as a stainless steel bar not further worked beyond cold-finishing, specifically for alloys with 8-24% nickel content. Used in marine and chemical processing applications due to its corrosion resistance.

Import Tips

• Provide mill test certificates verifying nickel content between 8-24% by weight to confirm classification under this subheading

• Measure and document maximum circular cross-section to ensure it's under 18 mm; larger dimensions shift to different statistical suffixes

• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying cold-rolled bars as hot-rolled, which would move to 7221 headings
