Last updated: April 2026 dataServing as the residual catch-all within HTS heading 7314, this subheading captures iron or steel wire mesh and fencing products that are neither welded at the intersection, zinc-coated, nor plastic-coated under the more specific subheadings. The US schedule distinguishes between product not cut to shape (7314493000) and product cut to shape (7314496000), a distinction relevant to construction and industrial filter applications where pre-cut panels command a premium. China leads supply, followed by Canada and Germany; German and Italian product in this heading often represents precision-engineered industrial mesh used in filtration, screening, or architectural applications. Section 232 steel tariffs apply, and the NESOI designation means classification here should be confirmed only after ruling out all more-specific subheadings.

Product 'not cut to shape' (7314493000) typically arrives in rolls or standard-dimension sheets and is further processed by the buyer. 'Cut to shape' (7314496000) refers to panels or pieces already trimmed to a specific end-use dimension, such as filter frames or architectural infill panels. The distinction affects not only classification but also valuation, since cut-to-shape product often carries a higher unit value reflecting the additional processing.
European producers — particularly German and Italian manufacturers — specialize in high-specification woven wire cloth and precision mesh used in industrial screening, architectural facades, and technical filtration. These products often do not fit the welded, galvanized, or plastic-coated categories, landing them in the NESOI subheading. Their presence reflects quality-differentiated demand rather than commodity volume competition.
