Last updated: August 2026 dataNumerically controlled (N/C) roll forming machines shape flat metal stock into continuous profiles — a critical process in automotive body panels, structural framing, and HVAC ductwork manufacturing. The US tariff schedule divides this heading into used or rebuilt machines (8462250010) and two new-machine lines (8462250050, 8462250060), a distinction that affects both duty treatment and Section 232 exposure on imported capital equipment. Italy leads US supply, followed by Germany and the Netherlands, reflecting the concentration of precision metalforming machine-tool manufacturing in Western Europe. Importers should verify whether a machine's CNC controller software or integrated tooling changes the classification at the 10-digit level.

The US schedule explicitly separates used or rebuilt N/C roll forming machines (8462250010) from new machines (8462250050 and 8462250060). Condition at time of importation — not original manufacture date — governs which line applies, so importers of refurbished European equipment should document the machine's condition thoroughly to support the correct 10-digit classification.
Certain metal-processing machinery imports have been reviewed under Section 232 and Section 301 frameworks. While roll forming machines are capital goods rather than steel or aluminum themselves, importers should confirm with a licensed customs broker whether any applicable orders or measures affect their specific supplier country and machine configuration.
