AISI 4140 Hot-Rolled Alloy Steel Round Bar 200mm from Japan
AISI 4140 chromium-molybdenum alloy steel bar, hot-rolled with a diameter of 200 mm, used for heavy machinery shafts and axles. Classified under HTS 7228.30.80.45 as other bars and rods of alloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, with cross-section 152-228 mm. Meets alloy steel definition due to chromium and molybdenum content exceeding Chapter 72 note thresholds.

Import Tips
• Certify exact alloy composition (Cr, Mo content) matching AISI 4140 specs to avoid reclassification; measure diameter precisely as <152mm shifts to smaller size subheading; ensure mill test reports confirm hot-rolled only, no further working like polishing
