Last updated: April 2026 dataAngles, shapes, and sections of iron or nonalloy steel that are hot-rolled, hot-drawn, or hot-extruded and do not fall under more specific headings are classified here under a single 10-digit line (7216500000). These profiles serve structural and fabrication roles across construction, shipbuilding, and industrial machinery sectors. Germany and Turkey are the leading sources of US imports under this heading, reflecting European mill capacity for specialty structural profiles.

Heading 721640 is reserved specifically for L and T sections that are 80 mm or more in height. Heading 721650 captures all other hot-worked angles, shapes, and sections of iron or nonalloy steel that do not meet those dimensional or profile criteria — it is the residual 'NESOI' category for hot-worked structural profiles.
European integrated mills have long produced a wide range of specialty structural profiles — including bulb flats, unequal angles, and custom extrusions — that are less commonly rolled by North American producers. This gives German and Turkish mills a competitive niche for non-standard hot-worked sections imported into the US market.
