Last updated: April 2026 dataSubject to Section 232 tariffs, imports of iron (below 99.94% purity) and nonalloy steel ingots represent the most upstream solidified form of steelmaking output — cast into fixed molds before any rolling or forging. Ingots at this purity threshold are distinguished from commercially pure iron and serve as feedstock for downstream rolling mills and forge shops. Buyers should confirm mill certifications for carbon content and heat-number traceability, as these affect downstream classification when the material is further processed.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Iron at or above 99.94% purity is classified as commercially pure iron under a separate SITC heading. Material below that threshold — even if very low in carbon — falls under this heading alongside nonalloy steel ingots, so mill certifications showing exact iron and carbon content are essential for correct classification.
Yes. Steel ingots imported into the United States are generally subject to Section 232 national-security tariffs. Importers should also check whether antidumping or countervailing duty orders apply to the specific country of origin, as coverage varies by supplier.
