U.S. imports of other alloy steel bars & rods, hot-rolled in irregularly wound coils, nesoi (HS 722790) totaled $23.4M in April 2026, traded with 9 countries.
Importers of Other Alloy Steel Bars & Rods, Hot-Rolled in Irregularly Wound Coils, NESOI paid $11.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 49% on $23.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Other Alloy Steel Bars & Rods, Hot-Rolled in Irregularly Wound Coils, NESOI imports of $23.4M in April 2026 ran 17% above the year-to-date monthly average of $20.0M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataThis residual heading captures hot-rolled alloy steel bars and rods in irregularly wound coils that are neither high-speed nor silico-manganese steel, encompassing a broad range of grades including ball-bearing steel, tool steel, CHQ (cold-heading quality) steel, and general alloy grades. The US tariff schedule is notably granular here, with separate lines for ball-bearing and tool steel grades, CHQ steel (7227906010), welding-quality wire rod (7227906020), and circular cross-section rods broken out by diameter — under 14 mm, 14–19 mm, and over 19 mm. Japan leads US supply, with Canada and Germany also prominent. Section 232 tariffs apply, and antidumping orders on certain alloy steel wire rod products from specific origins warrant pre-entry review.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Cold-heading quality (CHQ) steel is produced to tight surface, internal cleanliness, and dimensional tolerances that allow it to be cold-formed into fasteners, bolts, and precision parts without cracking. Its distinct processing requirements and premium pricing justify a dedicated classification under 7227906010, separate from general alloy wire rod. Importers should ensure mill certifications explicitly reference CHQ or equivalent standards to support this line.
Lines 7227906030, 7227906035, and 7227906040 subdivide circular cross-section alloy steel rod by diameter (under 14 mm, 14 to under 19 mm, and 19 mm and above). While the base duty rate structure may be similar across these lines, antidumping or countervailing duty orders can be size-specific, so the diameter declared at entry must match the actual product measurement documented on the mill certificate.
