Last updated: August 2026 dataAt under 3 mm thick but still 600 mm or more wide and supplied in cut lengths, this thin hot-rolled stainless plate occupies a relatively narrow commercial niche — thinner gauges are more commonly cold-rolled, so hot-rolled material in this bracket often serves applications tolerating a rougher surface finish, such as certain industrial liners or semi-finished blanks for further cold reduction. Section 232 tariffs apply, and the sub-3 mm thickness boundary is a classification trigger that customs officers routinely verify. Importers should retain mill test reports documenting nominal and actual thickness to defend classification.

Achieving a consistent surface finish and tight thickness tolerance below 3 mm is technically easier through cold rolling. Hot-rolled material in this bracket is typically used as a semi-finished input for further cold reduction, or in applications where the hot-rolled surface texture is acceptable, such as industrial liners.
Retain the original mill test report showing both nominal and actual measured thickness, along with the producer's certificate of conformance. CBP may physically measure samples; if measurements straddle the 3 mm boundary, the importer bears the burden of demonstrating correct classification.
