U.S. imports of hot-rolled flat steel coils, under 3 mm thick (non-alloy, 600 mm+ wide) (HS 720839) totaled $28.1M in June 2026, traded with 12 countries.
Importers of Hot-Rolled Flat Steel Coils, Under 3 mm Thick (Non-Alloy, 600 mm+ Wide) paid $9.1M in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 32% on $28.1M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Hot-Rolled Flat Steel Coils, Under 3 mm Thick (Non-Alloy, 600 mm+ Wide) imports of $28.1M in June 2026 ran 34% above the year-to-date monthly average of $21.0M.
Thin hot-rolled non-alloy steel coils below 3 mm — not pickled — are used in light structural applications, tubing, and as feedstock where mill-scale surface is acceptable. The US schedule for this heading is the most granular in the 7208 group, with six 10-digit lines covering AHSS/UHSS grades (7208390020), multiple high-strength tiers (7208390015, 7208390025), untrimmed-edge coils (7208390030), and standard non-alloy variants (7208390050, 7208390090). South Korea leads US supply, followed by Canada, the Netherlands, Mexico, and Egypt — a supplier mix that includes origins with active antidumping exposure. The AHSS/UHSS line reflects growing automotive lightweighting demand and requires precise mill certification to support classification.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The AHSS/UHSS line requires mill test reports confirming both the minimum yield/tensile strength thresholds and the microstructural grade designation (e.g., dual-phase, martensitic, or press-hardening steel). Standard high-strength grades that meet yield requirements but lack the advanced microstructural characteristics would fall under 7208390015 or 7208390025. Importers should obtain explicit grade designations from the mill and have a customs broker review the CMTR before entry.
Egypt has expanded flat-rolled steel export capacity in recent years, making it a growing source for thin hot-rolled coils. Importers sourcing from Egypt should verify whether any antidumping or countervailing duty investigations or orders apply to the specific product, and should conduct origin verification to ensure the steel was produced in Egypt rather than transshipped from a country subject to existing orders.
