U.S. imports of flat-rolled iron or nonalloy steel, 600mm or more wide, clad, plated, or coated, nesoi (HS 721090) totaled $17.0M in April 2026, traded with 12 countries.
Importers of Flat-Rolled Iron or Nonalloy Steel, 600mm or More Wide, Clad, Plated, or Coated, NESOI paid $2.0M in duties in April 2026 โ an effective duty rate of 12% on $16.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Flat-Rolled Iron or Nonalloy Steel, 600mm or More Wide, Clad, Plated, or Coated, NESOI imports of $17.0M in April 2026 ran 112% above the year-to-date monthly average of $8.0M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataClad, plated, or otherwise surface-treated flat-rolled steel in widths of 600mm or more that does not fall under the more specific tin, zinc, aluminum, or paint/plastic headings is captured here as a residual category. Four US tariff lines โ 7210901000 (clad), 7210905000 (coated/plated), 7210906000 (electrolytically coated with metal), and 7210909000 (plated/coated, NESOI) โ reflect the range of specialty surface treatments involved, from chromium and nickel plating to bimetallic cladding. Japan and Mexico are the leading sources for this heading. Section 232 tariffs apply broadly, and the NESOI structure means classification disputes often hinge on whether a more specific coating subheading applies first.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page โ verify before relying on it.
Treatments such as chromium plating, nickel plating, terne coating (lead-tin alloy), and bimetallic cladding that are not covered by the dedicated tin, zinc, aluminum, or plastic/paint subheadings would typically classify here. The clad line (7210901000) specifically covers products where a different metal is bonded to the steel substrate by rolling or explosion welding.
Mill test certificates or process declarations from the producer specifying whether the metallic coating was applied electrolytically (electroplating) versus by hot-dip, thermal spray, or mechanical bonding are the standard supporting documents. CBP may request these at entry to confirm the correct 10-digit line.
