Basic heading 67625 · $13.0M of $26.7B
Hot-worked stainless steel bars and rods not elsewhere specified — including hot-drawn and hot-extruded forms in straight lengths — serve the oil and gas, chemical processing, food equipment, and medical device industries where corrosion resistance is a primary design requirement. Grade selection (austenitic 304/316, ferritic 430, duplex 2205, etc.) drives both pricing and end-use suitability, and importers must ensure mill certifications align with the declared HTS subheading. Antidumping orders on stainless steel bar from several countries have been in place for extended periods, making origin verification a standing compliance obligation. Section 232 tariffs layer on top of any antidumping duties.

717 shipments/mo
Austenitic grades 304 and 316 dominate import volumes, with duplex and super-duplex grades growing in oil and gas applications. Long-standing antidumping orders cover stainless steel bar from several major producing countries; importers should check the current order list with CBP or the International Trade Commission before sourcing, as the covered grades and country scope can be specific.
At the SITC level, all three hot-working methods fall within 67625. At the HTS 10-digit level, however, the tariff schedule may distinguish by finish, diameter, or form. Importers should confirm the specific subheading with a customs broker, as the production method noted on the mill certificate should match the declared classification.
