AISI 4140 Hot-Rolled Alloy Steel Coil Rod 16mm from Japan
Hot-rolled bars and rods of AISI 4140 chromium-molybdenum alloy steel, wound in irregularly wound coils with a circular cross section of 16 mm diameter. This falls under HTS 7227.90.60.35 as other alloy steel (not high-strength, tool, or other specified types) hot-rolled in coils, with diameter 14-19 mm. Used primarily for shafts and gears in machinery.

Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate confirming alloy composition meets 'other alloy steel' definition per Chapter 72 notes, excluding tool or high-strength steel specs
• Measure and declare exact diameter (14-19mm); mismeasurement leads to reclassification and penalties
• Ensure coils are irregularly wound, not straight lengths, to avoid Chapter 72 heading 72.24
