Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7226.91Same rate: 35%

If confirmed high-speed steel

High W/Mo/V levels define high-speed tool steel explicitly excluded here.

7225.40Lower: 10% vs 35%

If ball-bearing steel per note (h)

Specific C/Cr/Mn/Si limits for bearing applications use separate alloy heading.

7210.49.00Same rate: 35%

If plated/coated surface

Any metallic/nonmetallic coating is 'further worked' per chapter definition.

Import Tips & Compliance

Distinguish from true high-speed (7226.91.10); certify if borderline composition

Thin gauge (<3mm) must still meet tool steel chem specs

Provide heat analysis; end-use statements aid CBP review
