7211

Analysis

Heading 7211 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers flat-rolled products of iron or nonalloy steel, of a width of less than 600 mm, not clad, plated or coated. It divides into 6 six-digit subheadings and 17 eight-digit tariff lines, with 25 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.

Every one of its 17 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the heading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.

The largest subheadings are 7211.19 (other, 6 lines), 7211.23 (containing by weight less than 0.25 percent of…, 5 lines), 7211.29 (other, 3 lines) and 7211.13 (unnamed, 1 line).

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Iron and Steel Mills and Ferroalloy Manufacturing (331110). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.

Its median rate of duty-free sits at the 46th percentile of the headings in chapter 72.
