U.S. exports of stainless steel angles, shapes & sections (HS 722240) totaled $3.7M in July 2026.
Importers of Stainless Steel Angles, Shapes & Sections paid $1.5M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 52% on $2.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Stainless Steel Angles, Shapes & Sections imports of $3.0M in July 2026 ran 31% below the year-to-date monthly average of $4.4M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataStructural and architectural applications — including food-processing equipment frames, chemical plant supports, and façade systems — drive demand for stainless steel angles, channels, and other sections classified here. India leads US imports under this heading, with Germany and China also significant sources. The US schedule distinguishes hot-rolled angles by maximum cross-sectional dimension relative to 80 mm (7222403025, 7222403065) and separates other shapes and sections at the same threshold (7222403045, 7222403085), with a catch-all line (7222406000) for NESOI products including cold-formed sections.

For hot-rolled stainless angles, the maximum cross-sectional dimension determines whether the product falls under 7222403025 (80 mm and above) or 7222403065 (under 80 mm). The same logic applies to other shapes and sections (7222403045 vs. 7222403085). The 'maximum cross-sectional dimension' is typically the longest leg of an angle or the widest flange of a channel, and this measurement should be confirmed from the mill's dimensional certification.
Stainless steel structural sections may be subject to antidumping or countervailing duty orders depending on the country of origin and specific product form. Importers should check the CBP ADD/CVD portal and USITC orders for active cases covering stainless angles and sections, as these can apply cumulatively with Section 232 measures.
