U.S. exports of Iron or Non-Alloy Steel Bars and Rods, Hot-Rolled, Hot-Drawn, or Forged (Including Twisted After Rolling) (SITC 67643) totaled $2.0M in August 2026.
Importers of Iron or Non-Alloy Steel Bars and Rods, Hot-Rolled, Hot-Drawn, or Forged (Including Twisted After Rolling) paid $46K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 13.62% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Iron or Non-Alloy Steel Bars and Rods, Hot-Rolled, Hot-Drawn, or Forged (Including Twisted After Rolling) imports of $338K in August 2026 ran 105% above the year-to-date monthly average of $165K.
Last updated: August 2026 dataProduced by hot-rolling, hot-drawing, forging, or a combination — and sometimes twisted after rolling to create deformed rebar profiles — these iron and non-alloy steel bars and rods are foundational inputs for construction, infrastructure, and general fabrication. The inclusion of twisted-after-rolling product is a notable scope detail: deformed reinforcing bar (rebar) twisted for concrete bond strength falls here when not further worked. Section 232 tariffs apply, and the construction-sector demand cycle means import volumes track closely with domestic building activity and infrastructure spending.

Rebar that is twisted after hot-rolling to create surface deformations for concrete bond is explicitly included in this heading. However, rebar produced with deformations rolled directly into the surface during the hot-rolling pass may be classified differently depending on the specific product form, so importers should confirm the production method with the mill and consult a licensed customs broker for the precise HTS determination.
The phrase means the product must not have undergone any cold-working, machining, or finishing operations after the hot-rolling, hot-drawing, or forging step. If a bar has been cold-drawn or cold-finished after hot-rolling, it would move to a different SITC line covering cold-formed products, changing both the classification and potentially the applicable duty treatment.
