Cold-Drawn 316L Stainless Steel Flat Bar
316L stainless steel flat bar cold-drawn to achieve tight tolerances and enhanced strength, ideal for marine and chemical environments. Classified under HTS 7222.20.00 because it is stainless steel not further worked than cold-finished, excluding any cladding or enameling. The low carbon content improves weldability.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If angles, shapes, or sections rather than simple bars
Specific stainless steel angles and shapes have dedicated subheadings even if cold-formed.
If not stainless steel, e.g., carbon steel equivalent
Non-stainless cold-formed bars classify under Chapter 72 heading 7219.
If coated with plastics after cold-finishing
Coating with nonmetallic substances constitutes 'further worked' per Chapter notes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include chemical analysis certificates proving 316L composition to prevent reclassification
• Document cold-drawing process to differentiate from extruded shapes
• Check for rust or discoloration at entry; no duty allowance per Chapter 72 note
