Last updated: August 2026 dataSubject to Section 232 tariffs as a steel mill product, this hot-rolled wire rod in irregularly wound coils — iron or non-alloy steel, circular cross-section under 14mm diameter, with carbon content below 0.6% — is a foundational input for wire drawing, fastener production, and cold-heading applications. Classified at 7213916000, it is distinguished from concrete reinforcing rod (rebar) and from higher-carbon grades used in spring or tire cord wire. The Section 232 framework applies broadly to steel imports, though country-specific exemptions and quota arrangements have varied over time, making origin documentation a persistent compliance priority.

This line covers hot-rolled rod in irregularly wound coils with less than 0.6% carbon content and a circular cross-section under 14mm, explicitly excluding concrete-reinforcing bar. Rebar classifies under heading 7214, while higher-carbon rod (0.6% and above) falls under a separate line within 7213. Both carbon content and cross-sectional shape are determinative.
As a steel product, hot-rolled wire rod is subject to Section 232 tariffs. However, certain countries have negotiated exemptions or quota-based arrangements. Importers must verify the current status of any exemption or quota for their specific country of origin, as these arrangements have changed over time.
