U.S. imports of welded iron or steel oil & gas drilling casing and tubing (non-stainless) (HS 730629) totaled $43.2M in April 2026, traded with 15 countries.
Importers of Welded Iron or Steel Oil & Gas Drilling Casing and Tubing (Non-Stainless) paid $14.2M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 44% on $32.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Welded Iron or Steel Oil & Gas Drilling Casing and Tubing (Non-Stainless) imports of $43.2M in April 2026 ran 25% below the year-to-date monthly average of $57.9M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataNon-stainless welded casing and tubing for oil and gas drilling — spanning iron, non-alloy, and other alloy steel grades — represents the broadest and most commercially active segment of welded OCTG imports. The heading carries an extensive set of 10-digit tariff lines that differentiate by alloy type, threading/coupling status, and whether the product is casing or tubing, making precise product documentation critical at entry. South Korea and Canada are the leading suppliers, with Taiwan, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam also among the top sources. Section 232 tariffs apply, and antidumping and countervailing duty orders on OCTG from multiple countries may also be relevant depending on origin.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Three factors drive the line selection: (1) alloy content — iron/non-alloy steel versus other alloy steel (non-stainless); (2) product type — casing versus tubing; and (3) threading and coupling configuration — threaded and coupled, threaded without coupling, or neither. Mill test reports for chemical composition and product certifications showing threading/coupling status are the essential supporting documents.
Antidumping and countervailing duty orders on OCTG are country- and product-specific, and the scope language in each order defines covered merchandise by specification, grade, and sometimes diameter. For origins like the UAE and Vietnam, importers should obtain a scope ruling or consult a licensed customs broker to determine whether the specific product — by alloy, size, and threading configuration — falls within any active order's scope before the shipment departs.
