Analysis
HTS 7314.19.01 covers woven cloth: other under heading 7314 (cloth (including endless bands), grill, netting and fencing, of iron or steel wire…).
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 60% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 60% duty.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 77% of the 250 tariff lines in chapter 73, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 332618 (Other Fabricated Wire Product Manufacturing), an industry of 710 US establishments employing 19,060 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
All 19 neighbouring lines carry the same duty-free rate, so a borderline choice between them changes the statistics reported, not the duty paid.
Every edition we compared, from Jan 2023 to Oct 2026 (Rev. 22), shows the same general rate of Free.
