Analysis
HTS 8311.30.60 covers coated rods and cored wire, of base metal, for soldering, brazing or welding by flame: other under heading 8311 (wire, rods, tubes, plates, electrodes and similar products of base metal or of metal…).
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 26% of the 58 tariff lines in chapter 83. 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.
The other lines in the same group are 8311.10.00 (coated electrodes of base metal, for electric arc-welding, duty-free), 8311.20.00 (cored wire of base metal, for electric arc-welding, duty-free), 8311.30.30 (coated rods and cored wire, of base metal, for soldering…, duty-free) and 8311.90.00 (wire, rods, tubes, plates, electrodes and similar products…, duty-free).
