Cold-Formed High-Speed Steel Round Bar 25mm from China
A cold-formed round bar made from high-speed steel (such as M2 grade) with a 25 mm diameter, used primarily for manufacturing cutting tools like drills and end mills. It falls under HTS 7228.10.0060 because it is a bar of high-speed steel that has been cold-formed and has a maximum cross-sectional dimension exceeding 18 mm. High-speed steel is defined in chapter note (e) as alloy tool steel with specific high chromium and carbon content for heat resistance during machining.

Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming high-speed steel composition per chapter note (e); declare exact cross-sectional dimensions accurately to avoid misclassification; inspect for cold-forming marks as hot-formed bars shift to 7228.30
