Heading 7320 — Springs and leaves for springs, of iron or steel
Chapter 73: Articles of iron or steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 732090 when importing or exporting springs and leaves for springs made of iron or steel that aren't specified elsewhere. For example, if you're shipping a batch of coil springs used in automotive suspension systems, this code applies.
This code is for items like springs that are not categorized under more specific HS codes. For instance, if you have flat springs or tension springs that don't fit into other defined categories, 732090 is the right choice. In contrast, HS-6 732010 covers specific types of springs like those used in watches.
When dealing with springs and leaves for springs, it’s important to differentiate between those made of iron or steel and those made of other materials. If your product is a composite spring made from plastic and metal, it would not fall under this HS-6 code.
Additionally, if you are exporting springs made from non-ferrous metals, you would need to look at different headings entirely, such as those under HS-6 7415 for copper springs.
