Last updated: April 2026 dataNonmalleable (gray) cast iron castings not elsewhere specified include a broad range of municipal infrastructure and utility products: manhole covers, catch basin grates, cleanout covers, valve boxes, and meter boxes each have dedicated 10-digit lines (7325100010 through 7325100035), with a residual line (7325100080) for other articles. These products are critical inputs for water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure projects, and procurement is often subject to Buy America requirements under federal grant programs. India leads US imports, followed by China and Mexico.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Federal infrastructure grant programs — including those administered under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act — typically impose Buy America requirements mandating that iron and steel products used in covered projects be produced in the United States. Imported cast iron manhole covers, grates, and frames would generally not satisfy these requirements unless a waiver is granted. Importers and project owners should review the specific grant terms and consult legal counsel before specifying imported castings on federally funded work.
The schedule provides dedicated lines for manhole covers, rings, and frames (7325100010); catch basin grates and frames (7325100020); cleanout covers and frames (7325100025); valve and service boxes (7325100030); and meter boxes (7325100035). All other nonmalleable cast iron articles not elsewhere specified fall under 7325100080. Correct line selection depends on the specific function of the casting, not just its shape.
