U.S. imports of numerically controlled bending, folding, straightening & flattening machines for flat metal products (HS 846226) totaled $9.7M in June 2026, traded with 16 countries.
Importers of Numerically Controlled Bending, Folding, Straightening & Flattening Machines for Flat Metal Products paid $1.3M in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $9.5M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Numerically Controlled Bending, Folding, Straightening & Flattening Machines for Flat Metal Products imports of $9.7M in June 2026 ran 15% above the year-to-date monthly average of $8.4M.
Press brakes and CNC panel benders used in sheet-metal fabrication, enclosure manufacturing, and structural steel processing fall under this heading when numerically controlled. Italy and Germany are the dominant US suppliers, with South Korea a notable third source — a supplier mix that spans both high-precision European toolmakers and competitive Asian manufacturers. The US schedule further splits new machines by value threshold (8462260020 covers new units under $3,025) and condition (8462260010 for used or rebuilt), making accurate invoice valuation and machine condition documentation essential at entry. Finland also appears among leading suppliers, often for specialized straightening and leveling lines used in coil-processing operations.

CBP typically looks at the machine's operational history, any refurbishment records, and the seller's commercial invoice description. A machine that has been reconditioned but previously placed in service abroad should be declared as used; importers should obtain a written statement from the foreign seller confirming prior use and any rebuild scope to support the 8462260010 classification.
The US 10-digit breakout at 8462260020 captures new N/C bending, folding, and flattening machines valued under $3,025 each, while higher-value new units fall under 8462260050 or 8462260060. This threshold affects statistical reporting and can influence duty calculations, so the per-unit transaction value on the commercial invoice must be clearly stated.
