Importers of Iron or Steel Bathtubs (Other Than Cast Iron) paid $158K in duties in June 2026 โ an effective duty rate of 31% on $510K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Bathtubs made from iron or steel other than cast iron โ typically pressed or stamped steel with a porcelain-enamel finish โ represent the volume-market alternative to heavier cast iron fixtures. A single 10-digit line (7324290000) covers the full heading, meaning all such tubs regardless of finish or configuration enter under one tariff treatment. China is the dominant supplier, with India and the United Kingdom also contributing to US import flows.

The key is the manufacturing process and material form: cast iron baths are produced by pouring molten iron into molds, resulting in a thick, heavy article, while pressed-steel baths are formed by stamping or pressing steel sheet, producing a lighter, thinner shell. If the product documentation or mill certificate does not clearly identify the material, a metallurgical analysis or manufacturer's declaration may be needed to support the correct classification between headings 7324.21 and 7324.29.
Section 232 tariffs apply to steel as a primary material (e.g., steel mill products), not generally to finished manufactured articles of steel such as bathtubs. However, importers should confirm with a licensed customs broker whether any applicable Section 232 product exclusions or downstream product orders affect their specific goods, as the regulatory landscape can change.
