Alternative Classifications

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

7222.11.00Same rate: 35%

If stainless steel bars of circular cross-section

Stainless circular bars/hot-rolled classify in heading 7222, separate from other alloy shapes

7228.30.20Lower: 17.5% vs 35%

If cross-section 76 mm or greater

Size threshold determines subheading within same hot-rolled alloy bars category

7215.90.10Same rate: 35%

If considered simple carbon steel without alloy qualifiers

Lack of chapter note alloy elements shifts to other worked carbon bars
