Last updated: August 2026 dataZinc coating applied before or after welding defines this subheading, separating galvanized product from plain or plastic-coated alternatives in Chapter 73. The US schedule breaks out four 10-digit lines — including dedicated lines for zinc-coated wire fencing (7314311000), stucco/intersection zinc-plated netting (7314315010), and a residual NESOI line (7314315080) — reflecting the variety of galvanized mesh formats used in construction, agriculture, and landscaping. China is the dominant supplier, followed by Vietnam and Canada; imports from China are subject to Section 301 tariffs in addition to Section 232 steel measures. Correct classification between the welded-at-intersection lines here and the non-welded zinc-coated lines under 731441 is a frequent point of CBP scrutiny.

The critical factor is whether the wires are permanently joined at each crossing point by welding. If the intersections are merely twisted, woven, or mechanically interlocked without a weld, the product belongs under 731441. Physical examination of a sample and review of the manufacturer's production records are the standard methods used to resolve this distinction at entry.
Shipments from China face both Section 232 steel tariffs and Section 301 tariffs. Vietnam is subject to Section 232 measures and may also be reviewed for transshipment of Chinese-origin steel. Importers should obtain mill certificates and country-of-origin documentation to support admissibility and correct duty assessment.
