SUJ2 Hot-Rolled Ball-Bearing Steel Band
Narrow hot-rolled band of SUJ2 Japanese ball-bearing steel, 150 mm width x 3 mm thick, for bearing ring blanks. HTS 7226.91.25.30 applies to this hot-rolled, not further worked, tool steel of <300 mm width with ball-bearing profile (1.25-1.65% Cr, controlled impurities). Provides wear resistance for automotive wheel bearings.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If other alloy steel, not tool steel
Hot-rolled alloy steel <600mm not qualifying as tool/ball-bearing steel falls into 'other' alloy steel subheadings.
If drawn/pickled but not cold-rolled
Certain worked non-alloy or alloy bars/sections (not flat-rolled) may shift to heading 7214 if not meeting flat criteria.
If other tool steel not ball-bearing
Hot-rolled tool steels meeting note (e) but not exact ball-bearing (h) specs classify under broader 7225 tool steel provisions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Label shipments clearly as 'ball-bearing steel per US Note 72(h)' with supporting lab analysis to expedite customs clearance
• Confirm product is 'flat-rolled' not bars/rods; thickness/width ratios must align with flat-rolled definitions
• Watch for AD/CVD on certain alloy steel from specific countries; check USTR exclusions before importing
