HS-6 · Subheading
721391
Iron or non-alloy steel; bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils, n.e.c. in heading no. 7213, of circular cross-section measuring less than 14mm in diameter
Heading 7213 — Iron or non-alloy steel; bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721391 when importing or exporting hot-rolled iron or non-alloy steel bars and rods in irregularly wound coils with a circular cross-section measuring less than 14mm in diameter. For example, this code applies to steel wire rods used in manufacturing small springs or wire products.
This HS-6 line specifically narrows down the broader category of hot-rolled bars and rods under HS-4 7213. It distinguishes itself from HS-6 721392, which covers similar products but with a circular cross-section of 14mm or more.
The 721391 code is essential for those dealing with smaller diameter steel products, which are often used in construction, automotive, and machinery applications. Understanding the exact specifications is crucial for compliance and tariff classification.
If you're unsure whether your product fits this code, consider the dimensions and the form of the steel. For instance, hot-rolled steel bars used in wire fencing or as raw material for small components would fall under this classification.

Questions & answers
For orientation only—the binding text is your national tariff and the WCO nomenclature your country uses.
- What types of products are classified under HS-6 721391?
- HS-6 721391 covers hot-rolled iron or non-alloy steel bars and rods in irregularly wound coils with a diameter of less than 14mm, often used in manufacturing small components and wire products.
- How do I know if my steel product falls under this HS code?
- Check the diameter and shape of your steel product. If it is a hot-rolled bar or rod in irregular coils and measures less than 14mm in diameter, it likely falls under HS-6 721391.
- What is the difference between HS-6 721391 and HS-6 721392?
- The main difference is the diameter; HS-6 721391 is for products less than 14mm, while HS-6 721392 covers those with a diameter of 14mm or more.
- Can I use HS-6 721391 for steel used in construction?
- Yes, if the steel bars or rods are hot-rolled, in irregular coils, and have a diameter less than 14mm, they can be classified under HS-6 721391 for construction use.
- What are common applications for products classified under this code?
- Common applications include automotive parts, small springs, wire products, and components used in machinery and construction.
- Do I need a special permit to import products under HS-6 721391?
- Import regulations vary by country. Check with your customs broker or local customs authority to determine if any permits or additional documentation are required.
- How can I ensure compliance with HS code classification?
- Consult with a customs broker or trade specialist to verify your product specifications and ensure accurate classification to avoid penalties.
