Heading 7221 — Stainless steel bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 722100 when importing or exporting hot-rolled stainless steel bars and rods that are packaged in irregularly wound coils. For example, a shipment of 10 tons of stainless steel rods used in construction would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers stainless steel products that are hot-rolled and not straightened, which distinguishes them from other stainless steel bars that may be straightened or cold-rolled. If you're dealing with straightened bars, you would look at a different HS code, such as 7222 for cold-rolled stainless steel.
The 722100 line is essential for businesses that require stainless steel bars and rods for manufacturing or construction, especially when the product is delivered in coils. This can impact shipping costs and handling procedures, as irregular coils may require specialized equipment.
When classifying your products, consider the end-use and packaging. If your stainless steel bars are in straight lengths or different forms, you will need to check other relevant HS codes under the same chapter.
