U.S. exports of flat-rolled other alloy steel, under 600mm wide, cold-rolled (HS 722692) totaled $6.5M in July 2026.
Importers of Flat-Rolled Other Alloy Steel, Under 600mm Wide, Cold-Rolled paid $2.2M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 50% on $4.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Flat-Rolled Other Alloy Steel, Under 600mm Wide, Cold-Rolled imports of $4.6M in July 2026 ran 27% above the year-to-date monthly average of $3.6M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataCold-rolled flat products of non-stainless alloy steel under 600 mm wide achieve tighter dimensional tolerances and improved surface finish compared to hot-rolled equivalents, making them preferred inputs for precision tooling, die components, and high-performance mechanical parts. The US tariff schedule distinguishes tool steel (including non-high-speed grades) from other alloy steel, and further separates products under 300 mm wide by thickness relative to 0.25 mm — a threshold relevant to thin-gauge specialty strip used in electronics and precision instruments. Germany and Austria are the leading sources, reflecting Central Europe's strength in cold-rolled tool and specialty alloy strip. Section 232 steel tariffs apply across this heading.

Lines 7226927005 and 7226927050 cover high-nickel and other alloy steel strip not over 0.25 mm thick, while 7226928005 and 7226928050 cover the same width band over 0.25 mm. This split reflects the distinct end-use markets — ultra-thin strip often goes into precision instruments or electronics, while thicker cold-rolled strip serves tooling and mechanical applications. Misclassifying by even a fraction of a millimeter can place a shipment in the wrong tariff line.
The customs entry should be supported by a mill test report showing the full chemical composition. Tool steel grades (e.g., D2, A2, O1) have recognized industry designations; if the steel does not meet a recognized tool steel specification, it classifies as 'other alloy steel' under lines such as 7226924000 or 7226925000. A licensed customs broker familiar with specialty steel classifications can help map the mill cert to the correct line.
