7306.30
Other, welded, of circular cross section, of iron or nonalloy steel
Analysis
Subheading 7306.30 covers other, welded, of circular cross section, of iron or nonalloy steel, within heading 7306. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 3 US tariff lines below it are national.
Every one of its 3 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the subheading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.
The US splits it as follows: 7306.30.10 for having a wall thickness of less than 1.65 mm (duty-free), 7306.30.30 for tapered steel pipes and tubes principally used as parts of… (duty-free) and 7306.30.50 for having a wall thickness of 1.65 mm or more: other (duty-free).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Iron and Steel Mills and Ferroalloy Manufacturing (331110) and Iron and Steel Pipe and Tube Manufacturing from Purchased Steel (331210). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
