Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If width under 300 mm
Narrower flat-rolled products (less than 300 mm) fall under preceding subheading regardless of composition.
If other tool steel not meeting ball-bearing specs
Tool steels without exact ball-bearing alloy composition classify under general tool steel provisions.
If in coils rather than straight lengths
Hot-rolled alloy steel in coils shifts to heading 7208 before width-based splitting.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit chemical analysis reports verifying SUJ2 matches ball-bearing steel elemental limits
• Confirm no 'further worked' treatments per Chapter 72 note, such as coatings or polishing
• Declare exact width and thickness to prevent shifts to narrower width subheadings
