Last updated: April 2026 dataStraight bars and cut-length rods of silico-manganese steel — delivered in forms other than irregularly wound coils — are used in spring manufacturing, automotive suspension components, and structural applications where the combined silicon-manganese alloying provides a favorable strength-to-toughness balance. The US schedule splits this heading between non-cold-formed (7228201000) and cold-formed (7228205000) product, with cold-forming typically indicating a higher-precision, closer-tolerance bar for demanding end uses. South Korea leads US supply, with Germany and Taiwan also significant sources.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The mill certificate or producer's process declaration should specify whether the bar was cold-drawn, cold-finished, or otherwise cold-worked after hot-rolling. Cold-formed product classifies under 7228205000; bars that are hot-rolled or hot-worked without subsequent cold-forming classify under 7228201000. If the documentation is ambiguous, a binding ruling request to CBP can provide certainty before importation.
South Korea and India are both active subjects of US antidumping and countervailing duty proceedings across various steel bar categories. Importers should search the Commerce Department's order database by HTS line and country of origin prior to entry. Trade remedy duties, if applicable, stack on top of Section 232 tariffs and can substantially affect landed cost.
