The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 45.5%, 14.7 times the general rate.
Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, and 12 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 3.1%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.
The general duty rate is 3.1% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 76 (48th percentile of 65 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $310 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 332999 (All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing), an industry of 3,501 US establishments employing 66,282 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
