Importers of Flat-Rolled High-Strength Iron or Nonalloy Steel, Under 600mm Wide, Hot-Rolled, 4.75mm or More Thick paid $2.5M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 48.95% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Flat-Rolled High-Strength Iron or Nonalloy Steel, Under 600mm Wide, Hot-Rolled, 4.75mm or More Thick imports of $5.2M in August 2026 ran 22% below the year-to-date monthly average of $6.6M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataHot-rolled high-strength nonalloy steel strip and bar in widths under 600mm and thicknesses of 4.75mm or more is a workhorse input for automotive frame components, agricultural equipment, and structural fabrications requiring elevated yield strength without alloy additions. The US schedule subdivides this heading across four lines — 7211140000, 7211140030, 7211140045, and 7211140090 — distinguishing high-strength grades and coil versus non-coil form. Canada and Mexico are the leading suppliers, with Germany and China also significant sources. Section 232 tariffs apply, and antidumping orders on hot-rolled steel from certain origins warrant review before importation.

Line 7211140045 captures non-coil (cut-to-length) product, while 7211140090 covers coil form. The physical presentation at the time of importation — not the intended downstream use — determines which line applies, so importers should confirm with their supplier whether the steel ships on coils or as flat plates.
A mill test certificate (MTC) showing the mechanical properties — specifically minimum yield strength meeting the applicable high-strength threshold — is the standard supporting document. CBP may request the MTC to verify that the product meets the grade criteria for the high-strength-specific line rather than the general hot-rolled line.
