Cold-Finished 4140 Alloy Steel Round Bar 250mm

A cold-finished round bar made from 4140 chrome-molybdenum alloy steel with a diameter of 250 mm, used in heavy machinery shafts and axles. Classified under HTS 7228.50.50.70 as other bars and rods of alloy steel, not further worked than cold-formed or cold-finished, exceeding 228 mm cross-section. Meets alloy steel definition due to chromium and molybdenum content.

Alternative Classifications

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

7224.90.00Same rate: 35%

If made of non-alloy steel

Non-alloy steel bars fall under Chapter 72 heading 7224, lacking specified alloying elements like chromium or molybdenum.

7228.30.80Same rate: 35%

If hot-rolled instead of cold-finished

Hot-rolled bars (not cold-formed/finished) are classified under 7228.30, as this code specifically requires cold-working.

7228.70.30Same rate: 35%

If angles, shapes or sections rather than round bars

Structural shapes like angles or channels of alloy steel go to 7228.70, while round/square bars are under 7228.50.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide mill test certificates confirming alloy composition (Cr, Mo content) and cold-finished status to avoid reclassification

Verify cross-sectional diameter exceeds 228 mm with precise measurements; common pitfall is mismeasurement leading to wrong subheading

Declare as 'not further worked' - no coatings or polishing beyond cold-finishing allowed under this code
