Hot-Rolled Alloy Steel L-Angle 100x100x10mm from Mexico
A hot-rolled L-shaped structural section made from alloy steel with a maximum cross-sectional dimension of 100 mm, used in construction framing. Classified under HTS 7228.70.30.41 as hot-rolled angles, shapes, and sections of alloy steel, not drilled, punched, or further advanced beyond rolling, with cross-section 76 mm or more. Meets Chapter 72 definition for alloy steel due to added elements like chromium and molybdenum.

Import Tips
• Certify alloy steel composition to distinguish from carbon steel; ensure mill test reports confirm hot-rolled state without advanced processing
• Verify maximum cross-sectional dimension ≥76 mm to avoid subheadings
• No duty allowance for surface rust per Chapter 72 notes
