U.S. exports of Cold-Rolled Alloy Steel (N.E.S.) Flat Products, Under 600 mm Wide (SITC 67562) totaled $6.0M in August 2026.
Importers of Cold-Rolled Alloy Steel (N.E.S.) Flat Products, Under 600 mm Wide paid $1.5M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 44.27% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataNarrow cold-rolled alloy steel strip in the N.E.S. category — under 600 mm wide — serves precision applications in spring manufacturing, saw blade production, and specialized roll-formed structural components where specific hardenability or toughness profiles are required. The N.E.S. designation means the alloy content exceeds standard carbon steel thresholds but does not meet the definitions for stainless or other named alloy categories, making chemical certification essential for correct entry. Section 232 tariffs apply, and the relatively specialized nature of this product means fewer qualifying suppliers globally.

A mill test report (MTR) showing the full chemical composition is essential, as the N.E.S. alloy classification depends on specific elemental thresholds defined in HTS chapter notes. Without verified chemistry, CBP may reclassify the product, potentially affecting duty rates. A licensed customs broker familiar with steel classifications should review the MTR before entry.
Key end users include spring manufacturers (automotive and industrial), hand-tool and saw blade producers, and precision roll-forming operations making structural profiles. These sectors require consistent mechanical properties and tight dimensional tolerances, making alloy grade traceability a procurement priority.
