Automotive stampings are those specifically designed and used as structural or body components for motor vehicles, and they are classified under separate NAICS codes tied to motor vehicle parts manufacturing. Closures, crowns, and general-purpose stampings not designed for vehicle assembly fall under 332119. The intended end use and design specification are the key factors CBP and statistical agencies use to draw this line.

Antidumping and countervailing duty orders are product- and country-specific and change over time. Importers of stamped metal crowns and closures should search the USITC and Commerce Department's active order lists by HTS subheading and country of origin to determine whether any trade remedy orders apply to their specific shipment.
