17-4 PH Stainless Alloy Steel Hot-Rolled Flat Bar

17-4 PH precipitation-hardening stainless steel flat bar, hot-rolled for aerospace and structural applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance. Classified under HTS 7228.30.80 as other alloy steel bars not further worked than hot-rolled. Its martensitic structure and alloy content distinguish it from basic carbon steels.

Alternative Classifications

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

7222.40Lower: 10% vs 35%

If stainless angles/shapes

Stainless alloy steel in angle, shape, or section form (not bars/rods) classified under Chapter 72 stainless headings.

7228.50.50Same rate: 35%

If further worked (e.g., polished)

Any surface treatment like polishing per 'further worked' note moves to 7228.50 other bars.

7215.50.00Same rate: 35%

If for industrial end use only

Certain cold-finished non-alloy shapes might apply, but alloy composition keeps it in 7228; end use rarely changes material heading.

Import Tips & Compliance

Submit chemical analysis reports showing 15-17.5% Cr and 3-5% Ni to confirm alloy steel status

Declare exact cross-section dimensions; bars over certain sizes may require statistical suffix review

No duty allowance for surface rust per chapter note; ensure proper packaging to prevent entry discoloration
