U.S. exports of non-grain-oriented silicon electrical steel, flat-rolled, 600 mm or more wide (HS 722519) totaled $1.2M in July 2026.
Importers of Non-Grain-Oriented Silicon Electrical Steel, Flat-Rolled, 600 mm or More Wide paid $60K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 25% on $240K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Non-Grain-Oriented Silicon Electrical Steel, Flat-Rolled, 600 mm or More Wide imports of $815K in July 2026 ran 32% below the year-to-date monthly average of $1.2M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataNon-grain-oriented (NGO) silicon electrical steel serves as the core material in electric motors, generators, and small transformers, where uniform magnetic properties in all directions are required. Classified under a single tariff line, 7225190000, this wide-format product is subject to Section 232 steel tariffs, and importers should monitor any active product-specific exclusion requests. Japan leads US supply of this heading, with European producers in Romania, France, Austria, and Sweden also representing significant sources. Mill certifications specifying silicon content, thickness tolerance, and core-loss values are essential documentation for both customs classification and end-user qualification.

Customs classification hinges on the steel's magnetic characteristics. Mill test reports or material certifications that confirm the absence of a preferred crystalline orientation — typically evidenced by isotropic core-loss values — are the primary supporting documents. Without such certification, CBP may challenge the classification.
European steelmakers in Romania, France, Austria, and Sweden have historically invested in NGO production capacity tied to the region's strong automotive and industrial motor manufacturing base. This industrial linkage has made them competitive exporters of NGO grades to the US, whereas grain-oriented production is more concentrated in Japan and South Korea.
