Importers of Iron and Nonalloy Steel Structural Sections Under 80 mm, Hot-Rolled paid $1.7M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 37.24% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataHot-rolled, hot-drawn, or extruded U, I, H, L, and T sections of iron and nonalloy steel with a height under 80 mm serve as light structural members in fabricated metalwork, equipment frames, and secondary construction elements. The 80 mm height threshold is the defining classification boundary separating this heading from its larger-section counterpart, making precise dimensional measurement essential at entry. These smaller sections are widely traded inputs for the manufacturing and construction sectors and are subject to Section 232 tariffs as steel mill products. Importers should confirm that certified mill test reports accompany shipments to substantiate the nonalloy steel designation.

The critical dimension is the height of the section — specifically the overall height of the web or leg as measured in cross-section. Sections with a height strictly less than 80 mm classify here, while those at or above 80 mm fall into the adjacent heading. Mill certificates should clearly state the nominal height to support correct classification.
Yes, hot-rolled steel structural sections are steel mill products subject to Section 232 tariffs. Country-specific quota arrangements or exclusions may modify the effective treatment, so importers should check current Commerce Department guidance for their source country before entry.
