SITCSection 6
U.S. imports of stainless steel wire (SITC 67821) totaled $13.9M in April 2026, traded with 25 countries.
Importers of Stainless Steel Wire paid $5.8M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 48% on $12.1M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataDefined by its chromium content — typically a minimum of 10.5% — stainless steel wire offers corrosion resistance that makes it indispensable in medical devices, food processing equipment, aerospace fasteners, and marine applications. Grade distinctions (such as 304, 316, or duplex alloys) and wire diameter tolerances are the primary commercial specifications driving procurement decisions, and these same parameters can affect HTS classification at the 10-digit level. Stainless steel wire is subject to Section 232 tariffs, and certain origins have also faced antidumping scrutiny, so landed-cost modeling must account for both. Buyers sourcing high-specification wire for critical applications should require mill certifications confirming alloy composition and mechanical properties.

For SITC purposes, all stainless steel wire falls within this heading regardless of grade. However, at the HTS 10-digit level, distinctions by diameter or alloy composition may apply. For end-use compliance — particularly in food contact or medical applications — buyers must also satisfy FDA or other regulatory requirements independent of customs classification.
Stainless steel wire from certain countries has been subject to antidumping duty orders. Importers should consult the Commerce Department's antidumping order database and verify whether their specific alloy grade, diameter, and country of origin fall within the scope of any active order before finalizing purchase agreements.
